Cable de fibra óptica BlueOptics CAB-SMF-SC-SC-1 1 m SC SC G.657.A1

The BlueOptics CAB-SMF-SC-SC-1 1 m is a single-mode fibre optic patch cable engineered for high-speed data transmission in telecommunications and data centre environments. This 1 metre cable uses SC connectors on both ends and complies with ITU-T G.657.A1 specifications, offering improved bend performance while maintaining single-mode transmission characteristics. The 125 µm cladding diameter and single-mode design make it suitable for precise, low-loss connections between networking equipment.

Advantages

The cable's adherence to G.657.A1 standard provides enhanced bend radius tolerance compared with standard single-mode fibres, allowing installation in confined pathways and racks without significant signal degradation. SC-SC connectors deliver a push-pull coupling mechanism for reliable mechanical connection and consistent optical performance. The short 1 m length reduces excess cable management in dense rack layouts and helps maintain optimal attenuation for short interconnects.

Suitable for

• Patch connections between switches, transceivers and patch panels in data centres
• Telecommunications equipment interconnects in central offices and distribution frames
• Inter-device links in server racks and network cabinets where space is limited
• Single-mode optical networks requiring G.657.A1 bend-insensitive fibre

Key specifications

• Fibre type: single-mode
• Standards compliance: ITU-T G.657.A1 (bend-insensitive single-mode)
• Connector type: SC to SC (both ends)
• Length: 1 metre
• Cladding diameter: 125 µm
• Application: indoor patching, rack and cabinet interconnects

How to use

Ensure both devices or patch panel ports are compatible with SC single-mode connections before installation. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and mechanical stress; although the G.657.A1 fibre offers improved bend tolerance, maintain gentle curves to preserve signal integrity. Insert SC connectors into the corresponding adapters or ports until they click into place. For removal, depress the SC connector latch and pull straight out. Verify optical link performance with an appropriate tester after installation to confirm attenuation and continuity.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable using its natural coil to avoid kinks. Clean connector end-faces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before mating to prevent contamination-related loss. For long-term installations in dense cabinets, label both ends to simplify maintenance and replacement.
