BlueOptics SFP3232EU5MK InfiniBand fibre optic cable 5 m SC

The BlueOptics SFP3232EU5MK InfiniBand fibre optic cable 5 m SC is a duplex multimode patch cord designed for high-speed data links and low-loss connections in networking equipment. It uses SC-UPC connectors on both ends and multimode OM3 fiber with a 50/125 µm core/cladding structure. The cable is terminated with ceramic ferrules and supplied with a measurement protocol confirming input loss under 0.2 dB. The 5 m length and LSZH outer jacket make it suitable for server rooms, data centers and structured cabling where short-range InfiniBand links and reliable duplex connectivity are required.

Advantages

This InfiniBand fibre optic cable delivers consistent full-duplex transmission with low insertion loss, supported by the included measurement protocol. The OM3 multimode fiber and ceramic ferrules provide stable optical performance for high bandwidth applications. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and toxic emissions in the event of a fire, and the standardized SC-UPC connectors ensure broad compatibility with networking ports that accept SC interfaces.

Key specifications

How to use

Inspect both connectors and device ports for dust or debris before connecting. Align the SC-UPC connectors and insert them until they click into the mating adapters on switches, transceivers or patch panels. Use the duplex orientation required by your InfiniBand interface to maintain correct transmit and receive pairs. Avoid tight bends and secure the cable along cable managers or racks to prevent microbending losses. If needed, verify link performance with appropriate optical test equipment using the supplied measurement protocol as a reference.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep minimum bend radius recommendations and avoid repeated flexing near the connector ends. Store and handle the cable using protective caps on the SC connectors until installation to maintain low insertion loss. Use this OM3 multimode SC-UPC duplex cable for short-reach, high-bandwidth InfiniBand connections within data center and enterprise network environments.
