Cavo in fibra ottica InfiniBand BlueOptics 00MN505 3 m UPC-LC aqua

The BlueOptics 00MN505 InfiniBand fibre optic cable 3 m UPC-LC Aqua is a single cable designed for high-speed optical connections in networking environments. With UPC-LC connectors on both ends and a 3-metre length, the cable supports low-loss signal transfer suitable for InfiniBand infrastructure and other high-bandwidth applications. The Aqua jacket identifies it as a multimode fibre type commonly used for short-range, high-throughput links in data centers and server rooms.

Advantages

This InfiniBand fibre optic cable offers reliable, low-attenuation transmission thanks to UPC-polished LC connectors. The standardized LC form factor enables dense port configurations and easy installation into switches, transceivers and patch panels. The 3 m length provides flexibility for rack-to-rack or equipment-to-patch-panel connections while reducing excess slack. The aqua-coloured jacket improves visual identification and cable management in multi-cable installations.

Suitable for

• Short-range, high-bandwidth interconnects in data centers and server rooms
• Connections between InfiniBand switches, host channel adapters and transceivers
• Patch panel to network equipment links where LC ports are used
• Environments requiring compact LC connectors and dense port usage

Key specifications

• Connector type: UPC-LC on both ends
• Cable length: 3 metres
• Fibre type: multimode (Aqua jacket indicates OM-class multimode fibre)
• Polish type: Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) for low back reflection
• Application: InfiniBand and other short-range high-speed optical links

How to use

Inspect connectors and ports for dust or debris before installation and, if necessary, clean with an approved fibre cleaning tool. Align the LC connectors with the device ports and insert until the latch clicks to ensure a secure connection. Route the 3 m fibre to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius to prevent signal degradation. For removal, press the LC latch and pull straight out to avoid damaging the connector or port.

Recommendations

For optimal performance in InfiniBand environments, use matching multimode transceivers and maintain clean end-faces. Avoid routing the fibre near high-heat sources and secure the cable with appropriate cable management to minimise strain and ensure consistent high-speed transmission.
