Lanview LVO231805UNI InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 5 m LC Blue

The Lanview LVO231805UNI is a 5 m OM3 fibre optic cable with LC to LC connectors in blue. It is a uniboot duplex cable with both fibre leads enclosed in a single jacket, designed for low insertion loss and improved airflow management in racks. Constructed from LSZH material, it meets common telecommunication safety standards and supports high-speed and legacy networks up to 10/40/100 Gbit where OM3 performance is required.

Advantages

The uniboot design houses both fibres in one slim jacket, reducing bundle size and allowing better rack airflow while maintaining low insertion loss. The connectors feature a removable top cover to swap connector positions and change polarity without replacing the cable. OM3 specification ensures compatibility with multi‑gigabit transceivers such as 10G SR, 40G BIDI SR, QSFP+ and SFP+ modules. LSZH construction provides reduced smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire, aligning with Telecordia, EIA/TIA and IEC requirements.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Data centre patching and rack-to-rack links
• Connections to 10G, 40G and 100G transceivers (SR, BIDI) where OM3 is supported
• High-density fibre panels and structured cabling installations
• Environments requiring LSZH cabling for safety compliance

Key specifications

• Cable length: 5 m
• Connector type: LC to LC (duplex uniboot)
• Fibre standard: OM3 multimode
• Colour: Blue
• Jacket material: LSZH
• Weight: 0.0023 kg

How to use

Remove protective caps from the LC connectors and insert each connector into the corresponding LC port on your transceiver or patch panel, ensuring correct alignment. To change polarity, remove the top cover from the uniboot connector and swap the fibre positions as required, then reattach the cover. Route the cable through cable management to maintain bend radius and avoid sharp bends; the OM3 multimode fibre requires careful handling to preserve performance.

Recommendations

Store and install the Lanview LVO231805UNI in a clean environment, handle connectors by the housing and keep dust caps on until final connection. Use appropriate cable management and maintain the recommended minimum bend radius for multimode fibre to prevent increased insertion loss.
