Cable de fibra óptica InfiniBand BlueOptics 050502T512000005M 5 m 2x LC LC/UPC

The BlueOptics 050502T512000005M is a 5 m InfiniBand fibre optic cable with LC/UPC connectors on both ends, designed for OM3 laser-optimized multimode fibre with a 50 µm core diameter. It supports full duplex communication and is intended for high-speed data transfer applications in data centres, network racks and between optical transceivers or patch panels. The cable features an LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath and is manufactured using branded fibre and connector components to provide consistent optical performance.

Advantages

The cable uses OM3 multimode fibre, offering low attenuation per kilometre and suitable bandwidth for short- to medium-range high-speed links. LC/UPC connectors and zirconia ceramic ferrules deliver stable mating performance and long service life up to typical industry mating-cycle expectations. Factory testing with interferometer and OTDR ensures documented input and return loss values, while compliance with industry standards and an LSZH sheath reduces fire hazard risks and smoke emission in enclosed spaces.

Key specifications

How to use

Route the 5 m LC–LC OM3 cable between the two LC ports to be connected, ensuring connectors are kept clean and dust caps are removed immediately before insertion. Align each LC/UPC connector with the device port and insert until a positive latch is felt. Avoid tight bends and sharp kinks; maintain the recommended minimum bend radius for multimode fibre. For installation in racks or conduits, secure the cable using appropriate cable management to prevent strain on connector terminations. If necessary, verify link performance with an optical power meter or OTDR and consult the supplied measurement protocol for insertion and return loss values.

Recommendations

Clean connector endfaces with approved fibre cleaning tools before each connection, store unused cables with dust caps fitted, and avoid exposing the LSZH sheath to prolonged mechanical abrasion or excessive heat. For best results in InfiniBand or high-speed links, use matched OM3 transceivers and adhere to manufacturer guidelines for channel length and transceiver tolerances.
