Microconnect FIB4220005 InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 0.5 m LC SC Blue

The Microconnect FIB4220005 is a 0.5 m OM3 multimode fibre optic patch cable with LC and SC connectors and a 50/125 µm core/cladding structure. The cable uses bend-insensitive multimode fibre and LSZH jacket material, reducing attenuation when bent or twisted and making installation and maintenance more efficient. Its blue colour and compact length make it suitable for dense cabling environments such as data centres and server rooms.

Advantages

This OM3 50/125 µm fibre cable offers lower bend-induced loss compared with traditional multimode fibres, compliance with common industry standards (IEC, EIA/TIA, Telcordia) due to its LSZH construction, and compatibility with 10G SR, 10G LRM and SFP+ transceivers. The short 0.5 m length and LC–SC connector pair provide a convenient solution for patching and equipment connections in high-speed Ethernet installations.

Suitable for

• 10G/40G/100G Ethernet connections using OM3 multimode fibre
• Connecting SFP+ and other multimode transceivers (10G SR, 10G LRM)
• Patch panels and short cabinet-to-equipment links in data centres

How to use

Inspect connector endfaces for contamination before use and clean with appropriate fibre cleaning tools if necessary. Plug the LC connector into the device or patch panel LC port and the SC connector into the corresponding SC port, ensuring secure mating and correct orientation. Route the cable without sharp bends beyond the fibre's minimum bend radius and avoid excessive tension on the connectors during installation.

Recommendations

Use this 0.5 m OM3 LC–SC patch cable for short interconnects inside racks and between adjacent equipment in data centres; for longer runs, choose appropriate OM3/OM4 cables of sufficient length and routing that respect bend-radius and cable-management practices.
