Cavo in fibra ottica BlueOptics 00MN499 0,5 m LC aqua OM3

The BlueOptics 00MN499 0.5 m LC Aqua OM3 fibre optic cable is a short-length multimode connection designed for high-speed data transmission in modern networking environments. With an OM3 graded multimode fiber and LC duplex connectors in aqua color, this 0.5 metre cable supports reliable links between active equipment in data centres, server racks and compact networking setups. The cable’s 125 µm cladding diameter and multimode construction are suited to short to medium distance multimode applications where high bandwidth and low loss are required.

Advantages

The OM3 multimode specification provides improved bandwidth and laser-optimized performance for use with 10 Gb/s and higher multimode systems over short distances. LC duplex connectors ensure a compact, high-density interface compatible with many network switches, transceivers and patch panels. The 0.5 m length minimises excess slack in dense rack installations and reduces the risk of signal degradation caused by long or tangled patch cords. The aqua jacket and standardized connector type make identification and integration into existing multimode infrastructure straightforward.

Suitable for

• Patch connections in data centres and server rooms
• Interconnects between switches, transceivers and optical modules
• High-density rack and cabinet installations where short links are required
• Multimode short-reach 10 Gigabit Ethernet links

Key specifications

• Fiber type: OM3 multimode
• Core/cladding diameter: multimode with 125 µm cladding
• Connector type: LC duplex (Aqua)
• Length: 0.5 metre
• Jacket colour: aqua
• Typical application: short-reach multimode high-speed links

How to use

Connect each LC connector to the corresponding LC port on networking equipment, ensuring correct transmit-to-receive alignment. Route the cable in the shortest practical path to avoid sharp bends and maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for multimode fibre. Secure the cable within the rack using appropriate cable management to prevent strain on connectors and to keep airflow unobstructed. Verify link status via the connected devices and, if necessary, test optical loss with suitable testing equipment after installation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable for short-reach multimode links such as 10 Gigabit Ethernet within the same rack or between adjacent racks. Avoid tight bends, excessive pulling force and exposure to mechanical stress. Store and handle connectors with protective caps when not in use to prevent contamination and insertion loss.
