BlueOptics CBL-0206-03-BO InfiniBand Fibre Optic Cable 3m MTP 4xLC LC/APC

The BlueOptics CBL-0206-03-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 3 m duplex assembly with an MTP connector on one end and a 4xLC/LC APC termination on the other. Built with G.657.A1 single-mode fibre and a 9 µm core diameter, the cable supports high-density, high-speed data transmission suitable for InfiniBand networks, data centers and telecom racks. Its configuration provides full duplex links and is intended for short- to medium-reach fibre connections where low bend sensitivity and reliable signal integrity are required.

Advantages

This InfiniBand fibre cable offers low insertion loss and stable attenuation thanks to the G.657.A1 fibre type and standard compliant connectors. The 3 m length balances flexibility and neat cable management in rack environments. Using an MTP connector combined with multiple LC/APC terminations allows high-density parallel links while maintaining individual LC terminations for patching or equipment connections. The construction minimizes signal degradation and supports consistent performance in high-speed networking applications.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the cable by aligning and seating the MTP connector into the corresponding MTP port of a cassette or equipment panel, then route the 4xLC/LC APC terminations to the target LC/APC ports on active equipment or patch panels. Avoid tight bends and maintain the recommended minimum bend radius for G.657.A1 fibre to preserve optical performance. Verify correct polarity and connector seating to ensure full duplex operation and test the link after installation with appropriate optical test equipment.

Recommendations

Handle connectors with dust caps until final connection to prevent contamination. When routing in cabinets or trays, secure the cable to prevent strain on connectors and maintain bend radius. For reliable high-speed operation, confirm compatibility of InfiniBand transceivers and equipment with the MTP-to-LC/APC breakout topology prior to deployment.
