Microconnect FIB422015 InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 15 m LC SC Blue

The Microconnect FIB422015 is a 15 m fibre optic cable with LC and SC connectors, using 50/125 µm OM3 multimode, bend-insensitive fiber. It supports full-duplex communication and is designed for high-speed networks such as 10G/40G/100G Ethernet and InfiniBand applications. The cable jacket is LSZH and conforms to common industry standards for installation and safety.

Advantages

Bend-insensitive OM3 multimode fiber reduces attenuation when the cable is bent or twisted, simplifying installation and maintenance while preserving signal quality. The 50/125 µm core diameter is the preferred specification for 10G Ethernet, and the use of LSZH jacket materials provides lower smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire. The combination of LC and SC connectors ensures compatibility with a wide range of transceivers and patch panels.

Suitable for

• 10G SR, 10G LRM and SFP+/SFP28 transceiver connections
• 40G and 100G multimode links using parallel optics
• InfiniBand high-speed interconnects
• Data center patching and structured cabling

How to use

Route the cable between devices ensuring gentle bends and avoiding tight loops; secure with appropriate cable management hardware. Insert the LC and SC connectors into matching ports or adapters, confirming proper orientation and click engagement for firm connection. Verify full-duplex operation and link status on connected equipment; test signal integrity with appropriate fiber test equipment if required.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, maintain the recommended minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer, protect connectors from dust with dust caps when not in use, and use compatible transceivers for OM3 multimode fiber (e.g., 10G SR). Avoid repeated excessive bending and secure cables to reduce strain on connectors.
