EFB Elektronik 53670.40 InfiniBand fibre optic cable 40 m LC White

The EFB Elektronik 53670.40 InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 40 m single‑mode link with LC connectors and G.657.A2 fibre type, designed for full duplex high‑speed data transmission. Built for use in structured cabling and data centre environments, this white cable provides low loss and controlled bending performance to maintain signal integrity over extended runs. It is suitable for InfiniBand interconnects where reliable, low‑latency links are required between switches, servers and storage systems.

Advantages

The cable uses G.657.A2 fibre that offers improved bend tolerance compared with standard single‑mode fibres, reducing the risk of performance degradation in tight routing conditions. LC connectors provide compact, high‑density terminations compatible with common InfiniBand transceivers and patch panels. Full duplex support enables simultaneous bidirectional traffic, and the 40 m length covers medium‑range links in racks and across rooms while the white jacket aids visual identification and routing.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 40 m
• Connector type: LC — LC
• Fibre type: G.657.A2 single‑mode
• Transmission mode: full duplex
• Colour: white
• Suitable environment: indoor, structured cabling and data centre racks

How to use

Install the cable by connecting LC connectors to matching LC ports on InfiniBand transceivers, switches or patch panels, ensuring correct orientation for transmit and receive channels. Route the cable along cable trays or inside racks avoiding sharp bends; take advantage of the G.657.A2 bend tolerance but maintain manufacturer‑recommended bend radii where possible. Secure the cable with suitable ties or clips to prevent strain on connectors and avoid crushing or kinking during installation.

Recommendations

For stable operation, verify connector cleanliness before mating and use dust caps when ports are idle. Test the link after installation with appropriate optical test equipment to confirm insertion loss and continuity. Use labelled runs and structured routing to simplify maintenance and replacement.
