BlueOptics SFP3132EU5MK InfiniBand fibre optic cable 5 m SC Aqua

The BlueOptics SFP3132EU5MK is a 5 m InfiniBand fibre optic duplex patch cord with LC/UPC to SC/UPC connectors designed for high-speed multi-mode networks. Constructed with laser-optimized OM3 (50/125 µm) fibre in aqua LSZH jacket, the cable supports full duplex 850 nm transmission and is suitable for connecting patch panels, optical transceivers and other fibre infrastructure components. Each cable is factory-tested with interferometer and OTDR and delivered with a measurement protocol documenting input loss and return loss.

Advantages

This OM3 duplex cable offers low attenuation (approx. 3.5 dB/km), low insertion loss (input loss under 0.2 dB) and high return loss due to precision polished ceramic ferrules. The LSZH outer jacket provides flame-retardant, low-smoke and halogen-free characteristics for safer installation in confined or public spaces. Connectors and ferrules are manufactured to industry standards to ensure stable mating performance and a long service life of mating cycles.

How to use

Inspect connectors and ports before installation to ensure cleanliness and absence of damage. Plug the SC/UPC connector into the SC port and the LC/UPC duplex connector into the corresponding LC transceiver or adapter, observing the correct orientation for transmit/receive pairs. Avoid tight bends and secure the cable along routing paths using appropriate clips or trays to maintain the minimum bend radius. After installation, verify link performance using optical test equipment or the equipment’s diagnostic tools and retain the included measurement protocol for records.

Recommendations

For optimal long-term performance, clean connectors with approved fibre cleaning tools before mating, avoid repeated mating without inspection, and route the cable away from sharp edges and high-heat sources. Choose LSZH cabling for installations in areas where low smoke and halogen-free behavior is required.
