Cavo in fibra ottica InfiniBand BlueOptics 00MN511-BO 10 m LC aqua

The BlueOptics 00MN511-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 10 m LC–LC multimode cable built on OM3 laser-optimized fibre. It is designed for high-speed InfiniBand and Ethernet interconnects in data centres and network racks, providing reliable optical links between patch panels, transceivers and active ports. The cable features Aqua LC connectors, a low-smoke, zero-halogen (LSZH) outer sheath and is manufactured with quality ceramic ferrules and branded multimode fibre to ensure stable signal transmission and long-term durability.

Advantages

The 10 m OM3 multimode construction supports high-bandwidth short-reach applications and delivers low attenuation and high return-loss performance. Factory end-face polishing and zirconia ceramic ferrules contribute to consistent mating performance and long connector life. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic and dense smoke generation in the event of fire, making the cable suitable for installation in enclosed or public environments where halogen-free materials are preferred. Each cable is tested with interferometry and OTDR and supplied with measured insertion loss and return loss values.

Suitable for

• InfiniBand connections between servers, switches and host adapters
• Short-reach multimode links in data centres and telecom closets
• Connecting optical transceivers to patch panels or patch panels to patch panels

Key specifications

• Length: 10 m
• Fibre type: OM3 multimode, laser-optimized
• Connector type: LC to LC, Aqua
• Jacket: LSZH (low smoke, zero halogen)
• Ferrule material: zirconia ceramic
• Tested: interferometer and OTDR measured insertion loss and return loss

How to use

Route the cable between the required ports, avoiding tight bends and compressive stress on the connectors. Insert LC connectors into corresponding LC ports until a tactile click confirms proper mating. For best optical performance, keep end faces covered until installation and clean connectors with an appropriate fibre cleaning tool before mating. Avoid routing the cable near high-power electrical sources and maintain the recommended minimum bend radius to prevent increased attenuation.

Recommendations

For reliable long-term performance, use this OM3 LC–LC cable for short-reach multimode applications up to the OM3 specification limits, verify connector cleanliness before each connection, and store replacement cables in a dry, dust-free environment. Follow standard data centre cable management practices to prevent strain and maintain low insertion loss.
