Glasvezelkabel BlueOptics SFP3132GU5MK LC SC OM5 5 m geel

The BlueOptics SFP3132GU5MK LC–SC OM5 fibre optic cable, 5 m, is a yellow full-duplex multimode link designed for short- to medium-range high-bandwidth connections in data centres and enterprise networks. This patch cable uses OM5 graded-index multimode fibre to support wide-spectrum applications and enables simultaneous bidirectional data transmission with LC and SC connector types on each end. The yellow jacket provides clear visual identification to simplify cable management in dense rack or patch-panel environments.

Advantages

The OM5 fibre construction provides enhanced bandwidth and supports wavelength-division multiplexing across a broader spectral range compared with earlier multimode types, which can improve throughput for compatible transceivers. The combination of LC and SC connectors offers compatibility with a wide range of SFP transceivers and panel sockets. Full-duplex capability ensures simultaneous send-and-receive operation, reducing latency in two-way links. The 5 m length covers typical rack-to-rack or equipment-to-patch-panel distances while the yellow outer jacket helps with quick visual identification and organised cable routing.

How to use

Inspect the connectors and fibre ends for dust or damage before installation. Route the cable along existing cable-management paths, avoiding sharp bends and tension; maintain minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer. Insert the LC connector into the LC port and the SC connector into the SC port until each clicks or seats securely. Ensure transceivers and ports are powered down or follow hot-plug guidelines provided by your hardware vendor when connecting. After installation, verify link status and perform optical power or bit-error-rate tests as required to confirm proper operation.

Recommendations

Store the cable in a dry, dust-free environment when not in use. Clean connector endfaces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before mating. Use protective dust caps during handling and maintain gentle routing to preserve optical performance. Match OM5 cable with compatible multimode transceivers and follow vendor specifications for maximum link distances at intended wavelengths.
