Microconnect FIB421005 InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 5 m LC SC Yellow

Microconnect FIB421005 is a 5 m single mode fibre optic patch cable with LC to SC connectors and OS2 fibre type. The cable has a 9 µm core and yellow LSZH jacket, designed for reliable full-duplex transmission in enterprise networks, telecom rooms, server farms and cloud storage networks. It supports 1G/10G/40G/100G Ethernet links and can carry data up to 10 km at 1310 nm or up to 40 km at 1550 nm.

Advantages

The cable uses OS2 single mode fibre for low attenuation over long distances and an LSZH outer jacket that reduces smoke and toxic emissions in case of fire. Pre-terminated LC and SC connectors provide compatibility with common networking equipment and data centre panels. Its 5 m length and yellow colour make it easy to route and identify in wiring installations, while the 9 µm core ensures standard single mode performance.

Suitable for

• Enterprise LAN and campus backbones
• Telecom rooms and equipment racks
• Server farms and data centres
• Cloud storage and service provider networks
• High-speed Ethernet connections (1G/10G/40G/100G)

Key specifications

• Length: 5 m
• Connector 1: LC
• Connector 2: SC
• Fibre type: OS2 (single mode)
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Cable colour: Yellow
• Jacket: LSZH
• Weight: 0.038 kg

How to use

Connect the LC connector to the LC port of your device or patch panel and the SC connector to the corresponding SC port. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to avoid signal loss. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and mechanical stress; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for single mode fibre. For long-distance links verify link budget and attenuation at the specified wavelengths (1310 nm / 1550 nm).

Recommendations

Use in indoor installations where LSZH properties are required; keep connectors protected with dust caps when not in use and perform periodic cleaning with fibre-safe cleaning tools to maintain optimal optical performance.
