BlueOptics SFP3132FU0.5MK InfiniBand fibre optic cable 0.5 m LC SC

BlueOptics SFP3132FU0.5MK is a 0.5 meter duplex fiber optic patch cord with LC/UPC to SC/UPC connectors, laser-optimized multi-mode OM4 fiber (G50/125 µm) and magenta jacket. Designed for 850 nm signal transmission, this OM4 LC‑SC cable supports full-duplex connections between patch panels, optical transceivers and other network devices and is jacketed with a flame-retardant LSZH material.

Advantages

The cable offers low attenuation (2.5 dB/km), low insertion loss and high return loss. Connectors can be supplied with UPC or APC polish to further optimize return loss. Manufactured with branded OM4 fiber and precision zirconia ferrules, the patch cord meets Telcordia GR-326-Core requirements and is factory-tested with interferometer and OTDR; a measurement protocol for insertion loss and return loss is included with each unit.

Key specifications

How to use

Verify connector types on the devices to be linked (LC and SC). Route the 0.5 m duplex cable between the two ports, avoiding sharp bends and mechanical stress on the cable and connectors. Insert the LC and SC connectors into the appropriate transceiver or panel ports until they click into place. For multiple connections, label each end according to your patching scheme and keep bend radius within the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Recommendations

Use this OM4 LC‑SC duplex patch cord for short-reach 850 nm multimode links in data centers and network racks. Choose UPC polish for general multimode connections; request APC only if specified by the equipment. Store and handle the cable to avoid contamination of connector endfaces and follow standard cleaning procedures before mating.
