Microconnect FIB561005 InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 5 m LC SC Green

The Microconnect FIB561005 is a 5 m OM5 multimode fibre optic cable with LC and SC connectors designed for high-speed, full-duplex data transmission. Featuring a 50 µm core diameter and green jacket, this cable supports modern multimode networks and is suitable for installation in data centres, server rooms and enterprise networks where increased bandwidth and reliable connectivity are required.

Advantages

OM5 (WBMMF) multimode construction improves support for shortwave wavelength-division multiplexing and meets contemporary bandwidth demands while retaining compatibility with existing multimode systems. The combination of LC and SC connectors allows flexible interfacing with equipment, and the 5 m length provides a balance between reach and manageability. The green jacket makes cable identification easier in multi-cable environments.

Suitable for

• Data centre and rack-to-rack connections
• Server room cabling
• High-speed enterprise network links
• Multimode fibre installations requiring OM5 performance

How to use

Inspect connectors and ports for dust before installation. Align and insert the LC and SC connectors into the corresponding ports on your equipment until they click or seat firmly. Use appropriate cable management to avoid tight bends; maintain the manufacturer-recommended minimum bend radius for multimode fibre. For duplex links ensure correct polarity by matching transmit and receive ports on both ends.

Recommendations

Handle the OM5 fibre with care: keep connector end-faces clean using approved cleaning tools, avoid excessive pulling force, and store or route the cable to prevent sharp bends. Verify compatibility with existing multimode components and test links after installation to confirm signal integrity.
