BlueOptics InfiniBand Fibre Optic Cable 5m LC Male-Male Yellow

The BlueOptics InfiniBand Fibre Optic Cable 5m LC Male-Male Yellow is a 5-metre single-mode patch cable with LC male connectors on both ends. Designed for high-speed optical links, the cable uses industry-standard LC terminations and a yellow jacket for easy identification in dense cabling environments. It is suitable for connecting transceivers, patch panels and other LC-equipped network devices where a 5 m fibre connection is required.

Advantages

This BlueOptics 5m LC-LC cable provides a standardized LC male-to-male interface that supports reliable low-loss optical connections. The yellow jacket simplifies cable management and identification in racks and junction points. BlueOptics manufacturing focuses on consistent connector assembly and optical performance to ensure stable signal transmission over the specified length.

Suitable for

• Connecting LC-equipped optical transceivers to patch panels
• Point-to-point fibre links within racks or between adjacent racks
• Data centre patching and equipment interconnects
• Telecom and enterprise networking environments requiring single-mode fibre

Key specifications

• Cable length: 5 metres
• Connector type: LC male to LC male
• Fibre type: single-mode (laser-optimized single-mode referenced in brand materials)
• Jacket colour: yellow (for identification)
• Typical application: patching and short interconnects in optical networks

How to use

Inspect both LC connectors and transceiver or patch panel ports for dust or debris before insertion. Gently align and push each LC connector into the corresponding port until it clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain the manufacturer’s recommended minimum bend radius for single-mode fibre. To remove, depress the connector latch and pull straight out without twisting.

Usage recommendations

Store and handle the fibre cable using appropriate dust caps when connectors are not in use. Avoid tight bends, excessive tension and exposure to solvents or abrasive surfaces. For best optical performance, clean connectors with lint-free wipes and approved cleaning solution before connecting.
