BlueOptics InfiniBand-kuitu-kaapeli 10 m 2x LC LC/APC

The BlueOptics InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 10 m 2x LC LC/APC is a 10-metre duplex multimode OM3 fibre cable designed for high-speed data transmission in data centres and enterprise networks. Equipped with two LC connectors on each end and APC polishing on one side, the cable supports full duplex InfiniBand and fibre optic links with a 50 µm core diameter. The cable is intended for short- to medium-range trunking and interconnect applications where low loss and stable signal integrity are required.

Advantages

This OM3 fibre cable offers high bandwidth and low attenuation over 10 metres, enabling reliable transmission of InfiniBand and other multimode optical signals. The 50 µm core ensures compatibility with common multimode transceivers while APC polishing on one connector reduces back-reflection for improved signal quality in sensitive links. The duplex LC–LC connector configuration simplifies installation in patch panels and active equipment with LC ports.

Suitable for

• InfiniBand interconnects in compute clusters and HPC environments
• Data centre rack-to-rack or shelf-to-shelf connections
• Short-range fibre patching between switches, servers and storage
• Multimode transceiver links requiring OM3 performance

Key specifications

• Length: 10 metres
• Fibre type: OM3 multimode
• Core diameter: 50 µm
• Connector type: duplex LC to LC with APC on one end
• Transmission mode: full duplex

How to use

Route the cable between the two endpoints avoiding tight bends and areas of mechanical stress. Insert each LC connector into the corresponding LC port until it clicks; ensure the APC-polished connector is matched to the appropriate port orientation if required by the transceiver. Use cable management and strain relief to secure the cable in racks and patch panels. Clean connector end-faces before mating to maintain signal quality and prevent contamination-related losses.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this OM3 cable for links within the specified 10 m length and pair it with compatible multimode transceivers and LC ports. Regularly inspect and clean connectors with appropriate fibre-cleaning tools, avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius, and store unused ends with protective caps to prevent damage.
