Glasvezel-patchkabel CBO BlueOptics SFP8181EU3MK 3 m, 2x LC, OM3 (aqua)

The BlueOptics Fiber patch cable SFP8181EU3MK is a 3 m duplex multimode fiber cable with LC connectors and an OM3 aqua jacket. It is intended for high‑speed data links in structured cabling environments and provides low insertion loss and stable optical performance for connections between SFP/SFP+ transceivers, switches, and servers. The cable's OM3 specification supports short‑reach multimode applications commonly used in data centers and enterprise networks.

Advantages

This OM3 fiber patch cable delivers consistent attenuation and return loss characteristics suitable for demanding network topologies. The duplex LC connectors ensure accurate polarization and simple mating with transceivers and patch panels. A 3 meter length provides flexibility for rack‑to‑rack or shelf‑to‑switch connections without excessive slack. The aqua jacket color follows industry conventions for easy identification of OM3 multimode links.

How to use

Install the duplex LC connectors into the corresponding LC ports of SFP/SFP+ transceivers, switches, or patch panels, taking care to align polarity correctly. Route the cable to avoid tight bends; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius to preserve optical performance. Secure excess length with cable management accessories to prevent strain on connectors. Inspect connector endfaces before mating to reduce insertion loss caused by contamination.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, clean LC connector endfaces with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before installation and verify link operation with an optical power meter or qualified transceiver diagnostics. Use this OM3 cable for multimode short‑reach applications; for longer distances or singlemode requirements, select an appropriate fiber type.
