Microconnect FIB221003 InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 3 m SC Yellow

The Microconnect FIB221003 is a 3 m SC–SC single mode fibre optic cable (OS2) designed for high-speed data transmission in enterprise networks, server rooms, data centres and telecom racks. With a 9 µm core diameter and full-duplex SC connectors at both ends, the yellow patch cord provides clear identification and reliable links for 1G/10G/40G/100G Ethernet connections. It supports transmission distances up to 10 km at 1310 nm and up to 40 km at 1550 nm and is built with LSZH jacket material that conforms to common industry standards.

Advantages

The cable uses OS2 single mode fibre with a 9 µm core for low attenuation over long distances, enabling high-bandwidth Ethernet connections. SC connectors on both ends ensure simple, stable mating and full-duplex operation. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and toxic gas emission in case of fire, and the yellow colour facilitates cable identification and organisation in racks and patch panels. Its 3 m length and lightweight construction make it suitable for short to medium patching runs.

Suitable for

• Data centres and server farms
• Telecom rooms and network cabinets
• Cloud storage networks and enterprise LAN backbones
• Connecting 1G/10G/40G/100G Ethernet equipment

How to use

Inspect the SC connectors and fibre ends for cleanliness before installation. Route the 3 m patch cord between the SC ports of the devices or patch panels without sharp bends; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Insert the SC connectors into the corresponding SC ports until they click into place for secure mating. For removal, depress the connector latch and pull straight out. Store unused cables coiled loosely to avoid kinks.

Recommendations

Use in indoor environments such as data centres and telecom rooms; avoid outdoor exposure or direct burial. Clean connectors with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before connecting and avoid exceeding the cable's minimum bend radius to maintain performance.
