Microconnect FIB551015 InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 15 m LC Green

The Microconnect FIB551015 InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 15 m multimode OM5 patch cable with LC connectors in green. Designed for high-speed data transmission, this OM5 (WBMMF) cable has a 50 µm core diameter and supports full duplex communication, making it suitable for data centre and networking environments where increased bandwidth and reliable optical links are required.

Advantages

OM5 wideband multimode fibre enables higher bandwidth over existing multimode infrastructure and improves compatibility with wavelength-division multiplexing techniques. The LC connectors provide a compact, standardized interface for InfiniBand equipment. The 15 m length offers flexible routing options in racks and between equipment, while the green jacket helps with quick identification of OM5 fibre in mixed-cable installations.

Suitable for

• High-speed InfiniBand links in data centres
• Interconnects between switches, servers and storage
• Multimode networks requiring OM5/WBMMF compatibility
• Cabling where 15 m length and LC connector format are needed

How to use

Inspect connectors and ports for cleanliness before installation. Align and insert the LC connectors into the corresponding LC ports on InfiniBand adapters, switches or transceivers until they click into place. Ensure proper cable routing to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress; adhere to the minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer. For full duplex links, connect each end of the duplex LC pair to the matching transmit and receive ports on the connected devices.

Recommendations

Store and handle the OM5 cable in a clean, dry environment. Use dust caps when connectors are not in use and perform regular visual inspections and cleaning with appropriate fibre-cleaning tools to maintain optimal performance.
