Fibre optic cable BlueOptics SFP2122BU30MK LC SC G.657.A1 30 m Violet

The BlueOptics SFP2122BU30MK LC–SC fibre optic cable, 30 m in length, is a single-mode patch cable built to the G.657.A1 bending‑insensitive standard. With LC connector on one end and SC connector on the other, this violet cable is intended for reliable, low‑loss optical links in data centres, telecom racks and structured cabling where moderate reach and good flexibility are required. It supports InfiniBand and other high‑speed transceiver modules needing single‑mode single‑fiber connections and is suitable for installations that require resilience to tight bends and compact routing.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable offers low insertion loss and stable signal transmission across its 30 m length while maintaining mechanical flexibility due to the G.657.A1 fibre type. The mixed LC–SC connector combination provides compatibility with a wide range of transceivers and patch panels without the need for adapters in many setups. The violet jacket colour helps with visual identification of specific circuits or service types in multi‑cable environments. The cable construction is designed to reduce micro‑bending sensitivity, delivering consistent performance in rack or trunk installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting single‑mode transceivers and network equipment with LC and SC ports
• InfiniBand and other high‑speed optical links requiring low loss
• Data centre patching, telecom racks and structured cabling runs up to 30 m
• Installations with tight routing where bending performance matters

Key specifications

• Length: 30 metres
• Fibre type: single‑mode, bending‑insensitive (G.657.A1)
• Connectors: LC on one end, SC on the other
• Colour: violet (jacket)
• Suitable for single‑mode SFP/SFP+/SFP28 transceivers and similar optics

How to use

Before connecting, verify that both ends and the mating ports are free of dust or contamination; use appropriate fibre cleaning tools if necessary. Align and insert the LC connector into the LC port and the SC connector into the SC port until each connector seats with a soft click or stop. Avoid sharp bends; maintain the minimum bend radius specified for G.657.A1 fibre when routing the cable. When disconnecting, depress the connector latch and pull straight out to avoid stress on the fibre. Store and route the cable in trays or loops that prevent kinking and protect the connectors with dust caps when not in use.

Usage recommendations

Use this cable for short to medium single‑mode links where compatibility between LC and SC devices is required and where improved bend performance reduces the need for complex routing. Regularly inspect and clean connector endfaces for optimum signal quality, and avoid repeated tight bending or excessive tensile load during installation.
