Microconnect FIB440407P InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 7 m LC Violet

The Microconnect FIB440407P is a 7 m OM4 multimode fibre optic patch cord with LC connectors on both ends. With a 50/125 µm core/cladding structure and violet colour coding, this cable supports full-duplex links for high-speed networks such as 10G, 40G and 100G Ethernet and is suitable for use with SR and BIDI short-reach transceivers like SFP+ and QSFP+ in data centres and telecom racks.

Advantages

This OM4 multimode cable provides higher modal bandwidth than lower-grade multimode fibres, making it suitable for 10/40/100 gigabit Ethernet applications. The LSZH jacket improves safety in confined spaces, and LC-to-LC terminations ensure reliable connections with common short-reach transceivers. The 7 m length and violet colour coding simplify channel planning and cable identification.

Suitable for

• 40G BIDI SR, 10G SR, QSFP+ and SFP+ transceiver connections
• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch links in data centres
• High-density patch panels and structured cabling installations

How to use

Inspect connector endfaces for cleanliness before installation and clean if necessary. Insert each LC connector into the corresponding LC port on transceivers or patch panels until it clicks. Route the cable to avoid tight bends (maintain minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer) and secure it in cable management to prevent strain on the connectors. For duplex links, ensure correct pairing of transmit and receive fibres.

Recommendations

Use this OM4 LC–LC patch cord for short-reach multimode connections in data centres and networking closets. Store and handle the cable carefully to avoid contaminating or scratching ferrules; clean connectors with approved fibre cleaning tools when performance issues are suspected.
