Alcasa LW-SA910LALA InfiniBand/glasvezelkabel 10 m LC LC/APC geel

The Alcasa LW-SA910LALA InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 10 m LC LC/APC Yellow is a singlemode OS2 fibre patch cable designed for precise, low-loss connections in data center, telecom and enterprise networks. With LC/APC connectors on both ends and a 9 µm core diameter, this 10 metre cable delivers long-range signal integrity and minimal back reflection, suitable for high-speed links and InfiniBand or optical transceiver applications.

Advantages

This cable uses OS2 singlemode fibre with a 9/125 µm profile and LC/APC terminations to provide low attenuation and excellent return loss. The LSZH outer jacket reduces smoke and toxic emission in case of fire, making it appropriate for indoor installations and cable trays. The 10 m length balances reach and manageability, and the yellow jacket aids quick identification of singlemode runs in mixed-cable environments.

Suitable for

• Data centre patching and cross-connects
• InfiniBand and high-speed interconnects where LC/APC interfaces are required
• Telecom links and long-distance indoor fibre runs
• Connections to optical transceivers and SFP/SFP+ modules using LC/APC

When it may not be suitable

This singlemode OS2 cable is not intended for multimode networks and will not provide optimal performance with 50/125 or 62.5/125 multimode transceivers. It is designed for indoor use; although the LSZH jacket improves safety in enclosed spaces, the cable is not specified for prolonged outdoor exposure or direct burial without additional protection.

Key specifications

• Fibre type: Singlemode OS2
• Core/cladding: 9/125 µm
• Connector type: LC (APC) to LC (APC)
• Length: 10 m
• Jacket: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Jacket colour: Yellow (singlemode identification)
• Application: Patch cable for optical links and InfiniBand connectivity

How to use

Route the cable along cable management channels or trays to avoid sharp bends; maintain bend radii recommended for singlemode fibre to prevent microbending loss. Insert each LC (APC) connector into the corresponding LC port until it clicks, ensuring correct orientation for APC ferrules. Avoid touching connector end faces; if necessary, clean end faces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before installation. Label both ends as needed to match patch panel and equipment ports.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that connected equipment accepts LC/APC connectors and requires singlemode fibre
• Verify that a 10 m length suits your rack layout and cable management plan
• Consider whether indoor LSZH-rated cable meets your installation safety requirements
• Ensure transceivers and links expect OS2 performance for long-range or low-loss requirements

Recommendations

Maintain proper bend radius and use dust caps until connections are made; use an appropriate fibre tester to verify insertion loss and return loss after installation to ensure reliable InfiniBand or optical link performance.
