Καλώδιο InfiniBand/οπτικών ινών BlueOptics 234457-B22-BO 5 m SC

The BlueOptics 234457-B22-BO is a 5 m InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with SC connectors and OM2 multimode fibre. Designed for full-duplex optical links, this SC–SC patch cable supports short- to medium-range data transmission and is compatible with HPE-style applications. The cable features laser-optimized multimode fibre, a flame-retardant LSZH outer sheath, and high-quality zirconia ceramic ferrules to ensure consistent optical performance and mechanical durability.

Advantages

This 5 m SC–SC OM2 cable offers low attenuation and high return loss values for reliable signal integrity in patching and transceiver connections. Manufactured with branded multimode fibres and industry-standard connector components, the cable delivers stable optical characteristics and up to 1500 mating cycles. The LSZH sheath reduces halogen release and smoke in case of fire, meeting relevant safety and environmental norms.

Suitable for

• Patch panel to patch panel connections in data centres and server rooms
• Connecting optical transceivers (InfiniBand/SFP+) and switches supporting SC interfaces
• Short- to medium-distance multimode links within buildings or campus networks
• Environments requiring low-smoke, halogen-free cabling (LSZH)

Key specifications

• Length: 5 metres
• Connector type: SC to SC (SC/UPC to SC/UPC)
• Fibre type: OM2 multimode, laser-optimized
• Mode: Full duplex
• Sheath: LSZH (low smoke zero halogen), flame retardant
• Ferrule material: Zirconia ceramic
• Tested with interferometer and OTDR; comes with input loss and return loss measurement protocol
• Designed to meet Telcordia GR-326-Core and common IEC standards

How to use

Route the BlueOptics SC–SC OM2 cable carefully through cable management paths to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress. Remove protective caps from the SC connectors only immediately before insertion, and align each SC connector with the corresponding SC port until it clicks into place. For transceiver connections, verify the transceiver and device support SC interfaces and match fibre modes. After installation, consult the provided measurement protocol to confirm input loss and return loss values meet your link budget requirements.

Recommendations

Maintain bend radii above the manufacturer’s minimum specification, avoid excessive pulling force on the cable jacket, and store unused connector caps to protect endfaces. For critical links, keep the measurement protocol with system documentation and retest after any re-termination or re-routing operations.
