BlueOptics 10332-BO cavo in fibra ottica InfiniBand 5 m MPO-UPC 4xLC-UPC

The BlueOptics 10332-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 5 m MPO-UPC 4xLC-UPC is a multimode trunk cable engineered for high-density data center and server interconnects. With an MPO-UPC connector on one end and four LC-UPC terminations on the other, this 5-metre cable supports aggregated high-speed links and short-range InfiniBand connections while aiming to minimise insertion loss and maintain signal integrity across parallel channels.

Advantages

This InfiniBand fibre optic cable provides compact MPO to LC breakout connectivity, reducing cable bulk and simplifying rack cabling. The UPC-polished connectors offer stable return loss characteristics for consistent performance in multi-channel environments. The 5 m length balances reach and routing convenience within cabinets and across adjacent racks. The cable construction and connector alignment are designed to support low insertion loss and reliable mating cycles typical of data centre operations.

Suitable for

• High-speed InfiniBand interconnects between switches and server adapters
• Parallel optical links and breakout assemblies in data centres
• Rack-to-rack connections and top-of-rack patching within 5 m distance
• Short-reach multimode applications requiring MPO to LC conversion

Key specifications

• Length: 5 metres
• Connector type (end A): MPO-UPC
• Connector type (end B): 4 × LC-UPC
• Fibre type: multimode (parallel MPO configuration)
• Number of channels: 4 parallel LC channels
• Typical application: InfiniBand and short-range multimode data links

How to use

Plan the cable route to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress; maintain the manufacturer’s recommended minimum bend radius during installation. Connect the MPO-UPC end to the MPO port of the switch or breakout panel and plug each LC-UPC connector into the corresponding LC receptacles on server adapters or patch panels. Verify correct polarity and channel mapping for parallel InfiniBand lanes, then secure excess cable to avoid strain on connectors. Perform optical loss testing or verify link status indicators after installation to confirm proper signal transmission.

Recommendations

Store unused connectors with protective caps to prevent contamination. Use appropriate cleaning procedures for UPC ferrules before mating. For optimal performance, avoid mixing connector types or grades in the same parallel link, and follow data centre cable management practices to reduce stress and maintain signal quality.
