Microconnect FIB884003 InfiniBand-/glasvezelkabel 3 m SC geel

The Microconnect FIB884003 3 m SC OS2 9 µm fibre optic cable is a single-mode patch cord designed for high-speed data transmission in professional networking environments. Featuring SC connectors and an OS2 fibre profile with a 9 µm core, this 3-metre jumper provides low attenuation and stable optical performance for long-distance links. The cable uses LSZH jacket material and is suitable for installations where reduced smoke and halogen-free behaviour is required.

Advantages

This single-mode fibre cable supports 1G/10G/40G/100G Ethernet applications and delivers low signal loss across long distances. The SC connectors provide reliable, easy-to-use push-pull mating for rack and panel installations. The OS2 graded fibre with 9 µm core ensures optimized single-mode propagation, enabling transmission distances up to approximately 10 km at 1310 nm and up to approximately 40 km at 1550 nm when used under standard conditions. The LSZH jacket enhances safety in enclosed spaces by reducing toxic fumes and dense smoke in case of fire.

Suitable for

• Data centres and server farms
• Telecom rooms and central offices
• Enterprise networks and backbone links
• Cloud storage interconnects and high-bandwidth applications
• Patch panels, fibre distribution frames, and network racks

How to use

Confirm link requirements and verify that both ends of the network use SC connectors and single-mode interfaces. Route the 3 m fibre jumper along cable management paths, avoiding sharp bends, compression, or excessive tension. Clean connector endfaces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before mating to ensure low insertion loss and return loss performance. Insert SC connectors into corresponding adapters or ports until they click into place. When removing, depress the release tab and pull straight out to avoid damaging the connector or port.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable coiled gently without tight loops; maintain bend radius recommendations from fibre standards. Use dust caps when connectors are not in use to protect endfaces. For critical links, perform optical loss testing after installation to verify compliance with link budget requirements.
