Fiber patch cable CBO SFP3131GU5MK 5 m, OM5 multimode, 2x LC, green

CBO SFP3131GU5MK is a 5 m fiber patch cable with OM5 multimode fiber and dual LC connectors in green. It is designed for short-range high-speed data transmission in data centers, enterprise networks and fiber links, providing low insertion loss and stable alignment for SFP/SFP+ modules. The cable supports multimode transceiver connections, allowing reliable interconnection between switches, transceivers and patch panels while maintaining signal integrity across short fiber runs.

Advantages

The OM5 multimode core and dual LC terminations deliver consistent optical performance for high-bandwidth applications. The 5 m length offers flexibility for rack-to-rack and cabinet-to-cabinet connections without excess slack. Low insertion loss and precise connector alignment reduce signal degradation and support reliable SFP/SFP+ module operation. Color-coded green jackets simplify identification of OM5 multimode links in dense cabling environments.

Key specifications

How to use

Route the fiber patch cable between compatible SFP/SFP+ transceivers, switch ports or patch panel ports, ensuring connectors are clean and free of dust before insertion. Align and insert the LC duplex connectors into the device receptacles until they click into place. Avoid sharp bends and maintain the manufacturer's minimum bend radius to preserve optical performance. When disconnecting, depress the connector latch and gently withdraw the cable to prevent damage to the ferrule and housing.

Recommendations

Use a fiber inspection tool and fiber-safe cleaning supplies to inspect and clean connector endfaces prior to each mating. Label both ends of the patch cable in rack environments and store spare cables coiled without tight bends. For best results in data center and enterprise deployments, match OM5 patch cables with compatible OM5 transceivers and adhere to structured cabling practices to maintain link performance.
