Fibre optic cable BlueOptics SFP3132GU3MK LC SC OM5 3 m Mint

The BlueOptics SFP3132GU3MK LC–SC OM5 3 m Mint fibre optic cable provides a factory-terminated multimode connection for short- to medium-range data links. The cable pairs an LC connector on one end with an SC connector on the other, supporting duplex communication over OM5 multimode fibre. With a 3 metre length and a mint-coloured jacket, this cable is intended for structured cabling environments where compatibility with LC and SC ports and predictable multimode performance are required.

Advantages

This OM5 cable offers low attenuation and stable multimode transmission suitable for high-speed networking equipment. The LC and SC connectors are pre-polished and housed to ensure repeatable mating performance and easy insertion into corresponding transceivers and patch panels. The 3 m length reduces the need for additional patching and helps maintain signal integrity in typical rack and desk deployments. The mint jacket provides visual differentiation for easier cable management without affecting optical performance.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting switches, transceivers and patch panels with LC and SC ports
• Multimode 10GbE and higher-speed short-reach links where OM5 fibre is specified
• Data centre horizontal cabling and equipment racks requiring 3 m patch cables
• Environments where colour-coded cabling simplifies identification and routing

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OM5 multimode
• Connectors: LC (one end) to SC (other end), duplex configuration
• Length: 3 metres
• Jacket colour: mint
• Transmission: full duplex multimode

How to use

Inspect connector endfaces for contamination before installation and, if necessary, clean using a fibre-optic cleaning tool to avoid insertion loss. Align and insert the LC connector into the LC port and the SC connector into the SC port until each connector clicks into place. Ensure the cable is routed without tight bends and secured to avoid strain at the connector ends. For testing, verify link status on connected equipment and measure optical loss if required by site standards.

Usage recommendations

Store spare cables in a dust-free environment and protect connector ends with dust caps when not in use. Maintain bend radius recommendations for multimode fibre and avoid mechanical stress to preserve long-term performance.
