InfiniBand/fibre optic cable BlueOptics 575702K512000007.5M-BO 7.5 m LC/APC

The BlueOptics 575702K512000007.5M-BO is a 7.5 m InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with LC/APC connectors and a 50 µm core diameter. Designed for full duplex data transmission, this multimode fibre cable supports high-speed links in server rooms, storage area networks and other data-centre or enterprise networking environments. Its LC/APC connector endfaces provide low back reflection and stable optical performance for bidirectional communication over the specified multimode fibre.

Advantages

This BlueOptics multimode fibre cable provides consistent full duplex performance and reliable signal integrity thanks to its 50 µm core and LC/APC connectorization. The 7.5 m length offers flexibility for rack-to-rack or equipment-to-equipment connections without excessive slack. The LC/APC connectors reduce return loss and help maintain signal quality in environments sensitive to reflections. The cable is intended for use in high-density installations where compact LC connectors and multimode performance are required.

Key specifications

How to use

Route the cable avoiding tight bends and sharp edges; maintain the manufacturer's recommended minimum bend radius for multimode fibre to prevent attenuation. Clean connector endfaces before mating and use dust caps when the cable is not connected. Insert LC/APC connectors into compatible LC/APC ports on transceivers, switches or adapters until they latch; verify full duplex operation and link status through the connected devices' management interfaces or link LEDs.

Recommendations

For best optical performance, inspect and clean LC/APC ferrules with appropriate fibre cleaning tools prior to installation, secure and label cable runs in structured cabling installations, and avoid routing the fibre near strong electromagnetic sources even though fibre is immune to electrical interference. Use this cable for short- to medium-reach multimode InfiniBand connections within data-centre racks or between adjacent racks.
