## Summary description

The BlueOptics ASR5-BO is a 0.5 m InfiniBand fibre optic cable featuring 2x LC connectors. It utilizes OM3 fibre optic type with a core diameter of 50 µm, ensuring full duplex communication. Ideal for high-speed data transmission in data centers and networking environments.

## Long description

The BlueOptics ASR5-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 0.5 m 2x LC LC/APC is a short, high-performance duplex patch cable designed for low-latency, high-bandwidth connections in server rooms and data centres. Constructed with OM3 multimode fibre and LC connectors on both ends (one end with APC polish), this 0.5 metre cable supports InfiniBand standards and is intended for reliable, high-speed link aggregation between switches, host channel adapters and active equipment requiring precision optical alignment.
Advantages
This InfiniBand fibre cable provides low insertion loss and consistent optical performance across short-reach links thanks to its OM3 multimode construction and precise LC connectors. The 0.5 m length reduces excess slack in dense patching environments, improving airflow and cable management. APC polishing on one connector end helps minimize back reflection where required by specific transceivers and ports. The cable supports full duplex transmission and is compatible with standard InfiniBand modules and multimode optical transceivers that accept LC interfaces.
Suitable for
 Short-reach InfiniBand connections in data centres and HPC clusters
 Interconnects between switches, routers and host channel adapters
 High-density patch panels and rack-mounted equipment with LC ports
Key specifications
 Cable type: OM3 multimode fibre
 Length: 0.5 m
 Connector configuration: 2x LC to LC with APC polish on one end
 Transmission mode: Full duplex
 Core diameter: 50 µm
 Intended application: InfiniBand high-speed links
How to use
Connect each LC connector to the corresponding LC port on your InfiniBand transceivers or switch modules, observing correct polarity for transmit and receive pairs. Ensure connectors and ports are clean before insertion to prevent signal degradation. Route the 0.5 m cable to avoid tight bends below the minimum bend radius and secure it within the rack or patch panel to maintain cable organisation and airflow. Verify link status on connected equipment and run optical diagnostics if required.
Usage recommendations
Keep LC connectors capped when not in use and use appropriate fibre cleaning tools before mating. Use this short-length OM3 cable for intra-rack and adjacent-rack InfiniBand links; for longer runs, choose a cable with suitable multimode grade and length to maintain signal integrity.
