Fibre optic cable BlueOptics SFP9231FU10MK MDC LC OM4 10 m Magenta

The BlueOptics SFP9231FU10MK is a 10 m fibre optic patch cord in magenta, built with OM4 laser-optimized multi-mode fiber (G50/125 µm). It features a duplex MDC/UPC connector on one end and an LC/UPC connector on the other, enabling full-duplex data transmission. The cable is designed for 850 nm signal transmission and is suitable for connecting patch panels, optical transceivers and other networking equipment where high-bandwidth multimode links are required.

Advantages

This OM4 fibre cable delivers improved bandwidth and lower attenuation compared with lower-grade multimode fibers, supporting higher data rates over medium distances. The duplex MDC-to-LC arrangement provides a compact MDC footprint with standard LC compatibility, allowing flexible interconnection between modern InfiniBand or data centre transceivers and conventional patch panels. The LSZH flame-retardant jacket reduces smoke and toxic emissions in case of fire, and the distinctive magenta colour simplifies cable identification in dense installations.

How to use

Inspect connectors and ports for dust or damage before installation. Route the cable following bending radius guidelines to avoid sharp bends and stress on fibre cores. Insert the MDC connector and LC connector into their respective ports until they latch securely. For duplex connections, ensure transmit and receive channels are aligned correctly according to device polarity. After installation, secure the cable to prevent strain at the connector ends and verify the link using the appropriate transceiver diagnostics or optical test equipment.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable in a clean environment, use dust caps when connectors are not in use, and avoid exceeding the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. For critical installations, test end-to-end attenuation and channel performance after installation and periodically during maintenance cycles.
