Kuitukaapeli BlueOptics CAB-SMF-LC-LC-3 3 m G.657.A1 LC - LC

The BlueOptics CAB-SMF-LC-LC-3 3 m G.657.A1 LC to LC is a single-mode fibre optic patch cable designed for reliable high-speed data transmission over short to medium link distances. With LC connectors on both ends and a 3 metre jacketed length, this cable supports modern networking equipment in datacentres, telecom racks and office backbone installations. The G.657.A1 fibre type provides improved bend performance while maintaining single-mode transmission characteristics and a 125 µm cladding diameter for standard compatibility.

Advantages

This LC to LC fibre patch cable offers low insertion loss and stable optical performance suitable for single-mode networks. The G.657.A1 fibre specification improves tolerance to tight bends and confined routing paths, reducing the risk of signal degradation in cramped installations. The 3 m length balances reach and manageability, making cable runs neater and easier to organise in racks or patch panels.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting transceivers and patch panels in datacentres and server rooms
• Telecommunication links within central offices and equipment cabinets
• LAN backbone connections requiring single-mode fibre with LC interfaces
• Structured cabling where bend-insensitive performance is beneficial

Key specifications

• Fibre type: single-mode G.657.A1
• Connector type: LC to LC (both ends)
• Length: 3 metres
• Core/cladding: single-mode fibre with 125 µm cladding diameter
• Cable use: patch cable for indoor/structured cabling environments

How to use

Route the cable between LC-compatible devices such as optical transceivers, patch panels or switches, ensuring connectors are clean and free from dust before insertion. Align the LC connector latch with the device port and insert until it clicks. Avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius recommended for G.657.A1 fibres when dressing the cable; secure the cable with appropriate cable management hardware to prevent strain on the terminations.

Recommendations

Inspect and clean connector endfaces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before each connection, keep cable bends gentle and within manufacturer bend-radius guidance, and use labelled patching in racks to maintain traceability and reduce handling.
