InfiniBand/fibre optic cable BlueOptics 575702T512000007.5M-BO 7.5 m LC/APC

The BlueOptics 575702T512000007.5M-BO is a 7.5 m fibre optic cable with LC/APC connectors designed for InfiniBand and high-speed data transmission environments. It uses OM3 multimode fibre with a 50 μm core diameter and supports full duplex communication, providing reliable connectivity for switches, network adapters and storage systems where low insertion loss and consistent signal quality are required.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable offers high bandwidth capacity and low attenuation thanks to OM3 multimode construction, enabling efficient handling of 10 Gb/s and higher link speeds in short to medium distance data center links. The LC/APC connectors provide stable mating with reduced back-reflection, and the 7.5 m length gives flexible reach for rack-to-rack or cabinet connections while keeping cable management tidy. The cable is suitable for environments that require predictable optical performance and compatibility with InfiniBand transceivers and ports.

Key specifications

How to use

Route the cable through cable management paths, avoiding tight bends and physical stress on the connectors. Remove protective caps from the LC/APC connectors, align the keyed connector with the port and insert until it clicks or seats securely. Ensure the mating interfaces are clean before connection to minimize insertion loss; use appropriate fibre cleaning tools if necessary. For disconnecting, release any latch mechanism and gently withdraw the connector, then replace protective caps to protect the ferrule ends.

Recommendations

Maintain a minimum bend radius as specified for multimode fibre to preserve optical performance, clean connector endfaces before installation, and verify link operation with suitable optical test equipment after installation. Use this OM3 LC/APC cable within recommended distance ranges for multimode links and pair it with compatible InfiniBand ports or multimode transceivers for optimal results.
