BlueOptics SFP3133FU0.5MK InfiniBand fibre optic cable 0.5 m LC ST

The BlueOptics SFP3133FU0.5MK InfiniBand fibre optic cable 0.5 m LC ST is a short multimode link designed for high-bandwidth, low-latency connections in data centres and professional networking environments. Constructed with OM4 multimode fibre and equipped with an LC connector on one end and an ST connector on the other, the cable supports full duplex transmission and is intended for reliable short-reach optical links where minimal signal loss and consistent throughput are required.

Advantages

This OM4 fibre cable delivers enhanced modal bandwidth for higher data rates and extended reach compared with lower-grade multimode fibres. The mixed LC–ST connector configuration allows integration between devices with different port types without additional adapter hardware. Its 0.5 m length reduces excess slack, improving cable management and airflow in dense rack environments. Full duplex capability supports simultaneous transmit and receive channels for bidirectional high-speed communication.

Key specifications

How to use

Inspect both connector endfaces for contamination before installation and clean if necessary using appropriate fibre cleaning tools. Insert the LC connector into the LC port and the ST connector into the ST port until each engages securely. Avoid tight bends at the cable ends and maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius to prevent increased attenuation. Route the 0.5 m cable to minimise stress and secure it to rack cable management features to preserve connector integrity and airflow.

Recommendations

For reliable long-term performance, handle connectors by the boot or housing, keep protective caps in place when not connected, and store spare cables in a clean, dry environment. Use this cable for short interconnects within racks or between adjacent equipment where OM4 performance and a combination of LC and ST interfaces are required.
