BlueOptics SRCABLE10M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 10 m LC Beige

The BlueOptics SRCABLE10M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 10 m LC‑to‑LC patch cable designed for multi‑mode OM3 networks and full duplex InfiniBand links. It is intended for high‑speed data transfer between transceivers, switches and patch panels where LC connectors and OM3 performance are required. The cable is supplied in a beige LSZH sheath and is compatible with common InfiniBand and optical connectivity applications.

Advantages

This 10 m OM3 LC‑LC cable provides low attenuation and high return loss suitable for short‑reach high‑speed links. It uses multi‑mode OM3 fibre optimized for laser transmission and full duplex InfiniBand communication. The LSZH outer jacket reduces halogen emission and smoke in case of fire, and manufacturers' quality components and zirconia ceramic ferrules are used to ensure stable mating performance and durability.

Suitable for

• Connecting InfiniBand transceivers and switches
• Patch panel to patch panel links in data centres
• Short‑reach multimode fibre links requiring OM3 performance
• Full duplex high‑speed networking and storage interconnects

Key specifications

• Cable length: 10 metres
• Connector type: LC to LC
• Fibre type: Multimode OM3 (laser‑optimized)
• Transmission mode: Full duplex
• Sheath: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Intended use: InfiniBand and multimode optical links

How to use

Inspect the LC connectors and ensure connector endfaces are clean before installation. Plug each LC connector securely into the corresponding LC transceiver or panel port until a tactile click is felt. Route the 10 m cable with gentle bends, avoiding sharp kinks and tight bend radii to maintain OM3 performance. For best results, test the link after installation using appropriate optical loss and return loss measurements.

Recommendations

Use fibre‑safe cleaning tools for LC endfaces and avoid mating with damaged connectors. Maintain bend radius according to manufacturer guidance and store spare cable coiled without tight loops. For critical links, verify insertion loss and return loss with an OTDR or power meter to ensure compliance with system requirements.
