BlueOptics SFP3132BU3MK InfiniBand kuitukaapeli 3 m LC SC keltainen

The BlueOptics SFP3132BU3MK is a 3 m single-mode InfiniBand fibre optic patch cord with a duplex LC/UPC to SC/UPC connector configuration. It uses G.657.A1 fibre with a 9 µm core diameter, yellow LSZH jacket, and supports full-duplex transmission at 1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelengths. Designed for data centers and networking environments, this LC–SC cable provides low attenuation and is compatible with optical transceivers and patch panels.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable offers low attenuation (approximately 0.4 dB/km), high return loss and low insertion loss for reliable high-speed data transmission. The G.657.A1 single-mode fibre ensures improved bend performance compared with older single-mode types, while the LSZH (low-smoke zero-halogen) jacket reduces smoke and halogen release in case of fire. Connectors use zirconia ceramic ferrules for long-life mating cycles and are manufactured by recognised connector suppliers. Each cable is tested with interferometer and OTDR and shipped with a measurement protocol for insertion loss and return loss.

Key specifications

How to use

Verify compatibility of the LC and SC connector interfaces with the transceivers or patch panel ports before connecting. Handle the fibre by the connector housings and avoid touching the ferrule endfaces. Clean connector endfaces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before inserting to minimize insertion loss and return loss. Route the cable with gentle bends; although G.657.A1 fibre has enhanced bend tolerance, avoid sharp bends and crushing. When disconnecting, pull by the connector body rather than the cable jacket.

Recommendations

Store and install the cable in dry, dust-free conditions. Use dust caps when connectors are not in use. For installations in racks or containment, follow bend-radius guidelines (typically no less than 10× the cable outer diameter) and secure the cable to prevent mechanical stress. For custom lengths, higher-performance polish options, or large deployments, consult technical specifications and request measurement documentation where required.
