## Summary description

QOLTEC 54018 is an InfiniBand/fibre optic network cable designed for high-speed data transmission in server rooms, storage systems and HPC environments. The cable provides optical connectivity for low-latency, high-throughput links between switches, adapters and storage arrays. Suitable for network infrastructure requiring InfiniBand or fibre optic interfaces; length and connector type should be verified before purchase.

## Long description

QOLTEC InfiniBand/fibre optic 54018 is a singlemode fiber optic patchcord designed for high-speed data transmission in server rooms, storage systems and high-performance computing environments. The cable uses LC/APC connectors on both ends and conforms to ITU-T G.652.D standard, providing low insertion loss and stable optical performance over typical singlemode deployments. With a 3.0 mm jacket and a 1 m length, this patchcord is intended for short interconnects between InfiniBand or fiber-optic interfaces on switches, transceivers, host adapters and storage arrays.
Advantages
The LC/APC–LC/APC connector pair reduces back-reflection and helps maintain signal integrity in singlemode links. Compliance with the G.652.D standard ensures predictable attenuation and compatibility with common singlemode transceivers. The 3.0 mm jacket offers a balance between flexibility and mechanical protection for rack and cabinet routing, while the 1 m length minimises excess slack for clean cable management.
Suitable for
Short-distance optical interconnects in server rooms and data centres
Connections between InfiniBand switches, adapters and host channel adapters
Fiber links to storage arrays and backup systems
Patch panels and optical transceiver connections requiring LC/APC terminations
Key specifications
Fiber type: singlemode (G.652.D)
Connector type: LC/APC to LC/APC
Cable diameter: 3.0 mm
Cable length: 1 m
Jacket: flexible singlemode optical cable suitable for rack routing
How to use
Inspect both LC/APC connectors and optical transceiver ports for dust or damage before installation. Align the keyed LC/APC ferrules with the adapter and insert until a secure click is felt; do not force. Route the 3.0 mm cable to avoid tight bends and excessive tension—follow the minimum bend radius recommended for singlemode fiber to preserve optical performance. When disconnecting, pull the connector body rather than the cable jacket to avoid strain on the fiber.
Usage recommendations
Use a fiber cleaning tool or lint-free wipes with appropriate cleaning fluid on connector endfaces before mating. For best performance in InfiniBand or low-latency fibre deployments, verify transceiver compatibility and test end-to-end link loss after installation. Store unused connectors with protective dust caps.
