BlueOptics InfiniBand Fibre Optic Cable 10m 2x LC LC/APC Green

The BlueOptics InfiniBand Fibre Optic Cable 10m 2x LC LC/APC Green is a 10-metre duplex OM3 multimode fibre cable designed for high-speed InfiniBand networks and short-reach data center links. It features two LC connectors and an LC/APC termination type on one or both ends for improved back-reflection performance. The 50 µm core diameter supports multimode transmission and is suitable for high-density rack-to-rack and switch-to-switch connections where low latency and consistent bandwidth are required.

Advantages

This fibre cable offers a reliable OM3 multimode construction optimized for 10 Gigabit and higher InfiniBand applications over short distances. The LC connectors provide compact, high-density connectivity compatible with standard transceivers and patch panels. The LC/APC end-face configuration reduces return loss, improving signal integrity in environments sensitive to reflections. Its 10 m length balances reach and manageability for organized cabling within server rooms and network racks.

How to use

Inspect both connector end-faces and ports for dust or damage before installation and clean with appropriate fibre cleaning tools if necessary. Route the cable along cable management trays or within racks avoiding tight bends and maintaining the minimum bend radius for multimode fibre. Insert LC connectors into compatible LC ports or patch panels until they click into place for secure connection. For duplex operation ensure correct polarity by matching TX and RX channels between endpoints. Test the link with suitable fibre optic testers or network diagnostics to confirm signal levels and connectivity.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable in a clean environment, use dust caps when connectors are not in use, avoid bending below the recommended radius, and perform connector cleaning before final installation to maintain optimal transmission performance.
