IBM 2078-5305 – 5M Fiber Cable (LC)

Detailed Description:

The IBM 2078-5305 represents a 5-meter fiber optic cable equipped with LC connectors, specifically designed to meet the connectivity demands of extensive data center and network infrastructures. This longer length fiber cable provides a solution for connecting equipment across different racks or within larger data halls, maintaining high-speed, reliable data communication over greater distances. Like its shorter counterpart, it leverages fiber optic technology to ensure optimal signal quality and bandwidth, critical for supporting advanced networking, storage, and compute functions. The use of LC connectors underscores the cable’s compatibility with modern networking devices, where space for connectivity is often at a premium, and high-density configurations are common. Ensuring minimal signal loss and electromagnetic interference, the IBM 2078-5305 is suited for applications requiring both distance and performance, such as linking core networking hardware or facilitating high-speed links between data storage systems and servers.
