Microconnect FIB441008 InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 8 m LC Yellow

The Microconnect FIB441008 is an 8 m single mode fibre optic cable with LC–LC connectors and OS2 fibre. With a 9 µm core diameter and yellow LSZH jacket, this patch cord supports full-duplex 1G/10G/40G/100G Ethernet links and is suitable for enterprise networks, telecom rooms, server farms and cloud storage networks. It provides low-loss transmission across long distances: up to 10 km at 1310 nm and up to 40 km at 1550 nm.

Advantages

The cable uses OS2 single mode fibre and LSZH outer jacket meeting common industry standards (IEC, EIA/TIA or Telcordia) to ensure reliable, low-attenuation links. LC connectors on both ends offer compact, duplex connectivity and the yellow colour improves visibility in cabling installations. The 8 m length and 9 µm core diameter make it suitable for rack-to-rack connections and longer backbone segments within data centres.

Suitable for

• Connecting 1G/10G/40G/100G Ethernet equipment
• Enterprise LAN and telecom rooms
• Server farms and cloud storage interconnects
• Fiber jumper requirements in patch panels and racks

How to use

Route the patch cord between LC duplex ports in patch panels, transceivers or network equipment. Ensure connectors are clean before insertion to avoid signal loss—use a fibre cleaning tool or lint-free wipes with appropriate solvent. Insert LC connectors until they click into place and secure cable routing to avoid tight bends; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for single mode fibre to preserve optical performance.

Recommendations

The cable is intended for indoor use in structured cabling environments; avoid exposure to prolonged moisture or direct sunlight. For installations requiring fire-retardant properties, verify LSZH suitability for your site. For longer distances or specific attenuation budgets, select appropriate transceivers and verify link loss with a power meter or OTDR.
