Glasvezelkabel EFB Elektronik LC-SC 50/125µ InfiniBand 5 m

The EFB Elektronik LC-SC 50/125µ InfiniBand 5 m fibre optic cable is a 5-metre multimode OM4 patch cable with LC connector on one end and SC connector on the other. Designed for full duplex InfiniBand and other high-speed network applications, this 50/125 µm cable provides low attenuation and consistent performance across the intended multimode bandwidth. The cable supports reliable data transmission for short- to medium-range links in data centres, server rooms and office network backbones.

Advantages

This OM4 multimode fibre offers higher modal bandwidth compared with standard multimode types, enabling improved signal integrity at higher data rates. The LC-SC connector pairing provides compatibility with equipment using LC and SC ports without additional adapters. The cable's 50 µm core diameter and 125 µm cladding conform to standard multimode dimensions, ensuring predictable optical characteristics and straightforward integration into existing multimode fibre infrastructure.

Suitable for

• InfiniBand links between switches and host channel adapters
• High-speed multimode connections in data centres and server racks
• Short- to medium-range SAN and storage networking
• Patch panels and equipment trays using LC or SC ports

Key specifications

• Cable length: 5 m
• Fibre type: OM4 multimode
• Core/cladding diameter: 50/125 µm
• Connector type: LC to SC (one LC end, one SC end)
• Transmission mode: Full duplex
• Typical application: InfiniBand and high-speed multimode networking

How to use

Inspect connector endfaces for dirt or damage before installation and clean with appropriate fibre cleaning tools if necessary. Route the cable with gentle bends; maintain a bend radius consistent with multimode fibre specifications to avoid increased attenuation. Insert the LC and SC connectors into matching ports until they click or seat firmly. For full duplex links, ensure both transmit and receive ports are correctly paired at each end. Verify link status and perform optical or network tests to confirm expected performance.

Recommendations

Store unused ends with protective caps to prevent contamination. Avoid tight bundling with power cables and secure the cable to prevent strain on connectors. For mission-critical connections, document port pairs and test achievable bandwidth over the intended link to confirm OM4 performance.
