QOLTEC InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 1 m SC–FC G.652D 9 µm yellow

QOLTEC InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 1 m SC–FC G.652D 9 µm yellow is a single-mode patch cable designed for short optical links and equipment interconnects. With a 1 m length and G.652D fiber specification, this cable supports full-duplex transmission between devices using SC and FC terminations. The compact, lightweight yellow jacket makes identification in racks and patch panels straightforward while the 9 µm core ensures compatibility with standard single-mode transceivers used in InfiniBand and fibre networks.

Advantages

The cable offers predictable single-mode performance based on the G.652D fiber type, suitable for low-attenuation links. SC and FC connectors provide reliable mechanical coupling and stable optical contact for data centre and telecom applications. The 1 m length minimises excess slack in short patch runs, and the yellow jacket helps with visual management in multi-cable environments. The lightweight build reduces stress on connector ports and simplifies routing in tight spaces.

Suitable for

• Short optical patch runs in data centres and server rooms
• Interconnects between InfiniBand devices and fibre transceivers
• Linking networking equipment with SC and FC ports
• Laboratory setups and test benches requiring single-mode connections

How to use

Insert the SC connector into the corresponding SC receptacle and the FC connector into the matching FC port on the remote device, ensuring connectors are clean and free of dust before mating. Align and push the SC connector until it clicks into place; secure the FC connector using its threaded coupling to avoid mechanical loosening. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and excessive tension; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for single-mode fiber to prevent increased attenuation or damage.

Usage recommendations

Before installation, inspect connector endfaces with a fibre inspection scope and clean with appropriate fibre cleaning tools if contamination is present. Use proper strain relief and cable management in racks and cabinets, and avoid sharp bends or kinks. Store spare cables in protective loops and keep dust caps on unused connectors to preserve performance.
