InfiniBand / fibre optic cable QOLTEC 54003, SC–SC connectors, 5 m, yellow, 9 µm core

QOLTEC 54003 is an InfiniBand / fibre optic patch cable with SC–SC duplex connectors and a 5 m length. The cable uses a 9 µm core single-mode fibre and is finished in yellow for quick visual identification in racks and cable runs. It is intended for high-speed data links, storage area networks (SANs) and interconnects between switches, transceivers or host adapters where SC duplex connections are required. The sheath is LSZH (low smoke zero halogen), which limits the release of harmful gases in case of fire, and the product is individually tested to ensure reliable optical transmission.

Advantages

The single-mode 9 µm core provides stable signal transmission for long-reach and high-bandwidth applications. SC–SC duplex connectors offer a standard, robust connection compatible with a wide range of InfiniBand and fibre optic equipment. The 5 m length balances flexibility and manageability in typical rack- and cabinet-based installations. The yellow jacket enables easy identification of single-mode links among mixed cable deployments, while the LSZH outer sheath improves safety in enclosed or public spaces. Individual testing of each unit helps ensure consistent performance and reduces the need for additional verification on site.

Подходит для

• Высокоскоростных каналов передачи данных и магистралей InfiniBand
• Соединений в SAN и между коммутаторами, трансиверами и адаптерами
• Инсталляций в стойках и серверных шкафах, где требуется SC–SC дуплекс
• Сред с требованием к материалам с низким выделением дыма и галогенов

Key specifications

• Cable type: single-mode fibre (9 µm core)
• Length: 5 m
• Connectors: SC to SC (duplex)
• Colour: yellow
• Sheath: LSZH (low smoke, zero halogen)
• Application: InfiniBand / fibre optic patching for data links and SANs

How to use

Route the QOLTEC 54003 cable between SC duplex ports on matching devices, ensuring connectors are clean and free of dust before insertion. Align the SC connectors and push until they click into the receptacles; secure cable routing with appropriate ties or guides to avoid excessive bending or strain near the connector ends. Avoid tight bends that could exceed the fibre's minimum bend radius and cause attenuation. Because each unit is individually tested, connect and verify link status and throughput at the endpoints as part of standard commissioning.

Использование и рекомендации

Handle connectors with dust caps until installation and use fibre cleaning tools when necessary. Maintain gentle routing, observe minimum bend radius, and avoid tensile stress on the cable. For installations in enclosed public or multi-tenant spaces, the LSZH sheath reduces the risk associated with smoke and corrosive gases. Test optical links after installation to confirm expected performance.
