BlueOptics InfiniBand Fibre Optic Cable 7.5m 2x LC LC/APC Green

The BlueOptics InfiniBand Fibre Optic Cable 7.5m 2x LC LC/APC Green is a multimode fibre patch cable designed for high-speed InfiniBand networks and other data centre interconnects. With a length of 7.5 metres and LC connectors on both ends, this cable supports full-duplex transmission and is suitable for short- to mid-range multimode links. The 50 µm core diameter ensures compatibility with common multimode transceivers used in fibre channel and InfiniBand systems while the LC/APC connector geometry reduces back reflection for stable signal integrity.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable combines a robust multimode 50 µm core with LC/APC connector endfaces to deliver consistent high-speed data transfer and low insertion loss in InfiniBand environments. The 7.5 m length offers flexibility within rack and cabinet layouts, and the dual LC terminations provide easy connection to standard ports. The green jacket enables quick visual identification of cable type and routing within dense cabling installations.

How to use

Route the cable between LC ports on your InfiniBand host channel adapters, switches or transceivers, ensuring connectors are clean before insertion. Align the duplex LC connectors with the corresponding port slots and gently insert until a secure latch is heard or felt. Avoid tight bends and maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius along the run to prevent attenuation or damage. For best performance, keep connectors dust-free by using dust caps when not connected and clean endfaces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools if contamination is suspected.

Recommendations

Use this 7.5 m multimode cable for intra-rack and short inter-rack InfiniBand connections where 50 µm fibre and LC/APC terminations are specified. Maintain proper cable management, avoid exceeding bend radius, and perform endface cleaning and inspection during installation to preserve signal quality and reliability.
