BlueOptics SFP3132BU2MX InfiniBand fibre optic cable 2 m LC SC Yellow

The BlueOptics SFP3132BU2MX InfiniBand fibre optic cable 2 m LC SC Yellow is a duplex multimode/ singlemode compatible link designed for short to medium reach fibre connections. It features one LC connector and one SC connector on a 2 metre yellow jacketed cable and uses G.657.A1 fibre with a 125 µm core diameter to support stable, low-loss data transmission in InfiniBand and other high-speed network environments.

Advantages

The cable provides reliable signal integrity with low attenuation and controlled bend sensitivity thanks to the G.657.A1 fibre type. A 2 m length offers flexibility for rack-to-rack or switch-to-host connections without excess slack, while the LC and SC connector combination ensures compatibility with a wide range of transceivers and patch panels. The yellow outer jacket makes the cable easy to identify in mixed cable runs.

Suitable for

• InfiniBand high-performance computing interconnects
• Data centre patching between switches and host adapters
• Connections to transceivers or equipment with LC and SC ports
• Short to medium distance fibre links in racks and enclosures

Key specifications

• Length: 2 m
• Connector type: LC on one end, SC on the other
• Fibre type: G.657.A1
• Core diameter: 125 µm
• Jacket colour: yellow
• Duplex configuration for bidirectional links

How to use

Install the cable by inserting the LC connector into the LC port of the transceiver or device and the SC connector into the matching SC port, ensuring correct polarity for transmit and receive channels. Route the cable through cable management to avoid sharp bends and secure the ends to prevent disconnection. Verify link status on connected devices and, if necessary, perform optical power or continuity checks to confirm proper installation.

Recommendations

Avoid tight bends and kinks; follow minimum bend radius guidelines for G.657.A1 fibre. Keep connector endfaces clean and protected before insertion and use appropriate dust caps when the cable is not connected. For best performance in high-density environments, label both ends and use cable management to maintain organised runs.
