BlueOptics 10G-SR-2M-BO Fibre Optic Cable 2m LC/APC OM3 50µm

The BlueOptics 10G-SR-2M-BO Fibre Optic Cable 2m LC/APC OM3 50µm is a duplex multimode patch cable designed for short-range high-speed networks. It provides a 2 meter connection with LC/APC connectors on both ends and uses OM3 graded fibre with a 50 µm core diameter to support data transmission up to 10 Gbps. The cable is intended for reliable interconnection of switches, servers, transceivers and patch panels in data centers and enterprise networks where compact LC connectors and multimode performance are required.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable offers low insertion loss and consistent multimode performance thanks to the OM3 specification and 50 µm core, ensuring stable 10G links over short reaches. LC/APC connectors deliver a compact footprint and precise ferrule alignment suitable for high-density racks and LC-based transceivers. The 2 m length reduces excess slack in engineered patching environments while maintaining flexibility for routing in racks and cable trays.

How to use

Inspect connector endfaces before insertion and keep protective dust caps on until ready to connect. Align the LC/APC connectors with the corresponding LC adapters or transceiver ports and insert gently until a positive engagement is felt. Ensure both ends are connected to matching transmit and receive ports for full duplex operation. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it in cable management systems to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this OM3 multimode cable for distances within the specified short-reach range of 10G-SR links and avoid exceeding recommended bend radii. Clean connector endfaces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before connecting and store unused cables with protective caps to prevent contamination and loss increase.
