Fibre optic cable BlueOptics EFE080-003M-R-BO LC LC/UPC 3 m Yellow

The BlueOptics EFE080-003M-R-BO LC LC/UPC 3 m Yellow fibre optic cable is a single-mode patch cord engineered for reliable, low-loss data transmission in telecommunications and data centre environments. It measures 3 metres in length, uses LC connectors with UPC polish on both ends, and is manufactured to G.657.A1 standards with a 9 µm core diameter. The cable’s yellow jacket provides easy visual identification in structured cabling systems while maintaining flexibility and compatibility with standard LC ports.

Advantages

This LC–LC single-mode cable offers low insertion loss and stable optical performance due to the UPC-polished connectors and adherence to G.657.A1 bending specifications. The 9 µm core diameter is suitable for long-distance and high-bandwidth links, while the 3 m length balances reach and neat rack or patch panel management. The yellow outer jacket enhances visibility during installation and maintenance.

How to use

Inspect connectors and ports for dust or damage before connecting. Align and insert each LC connector into the corresponding LC port until it clicks to ensure a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends beyond the minimum bend radius specified by G.657.A1 and secure it with appropriate cable management to prevent strain. For removal, depress the connector latch and gently withdraw to avoid damaging the ferrule or connector housing.

Recommendations

Use appropriate dust caps when connectors are not in use and perform periodic visual checks and cleaning with approved fibre cleaning tools to maintain optimal performance. Avoid tight bending, crushing, or exposing the cable to excessive mechanical stress during installation and operation.
