Ubiquiti UACC-OFC-S2-LULU-30M Fiber Patch Cable
The Ubiquiti UACC-OFC-S2-LULU-30M is a 30-meter lightweight fiber patch cable engineered for enterprise and data center environments where 100G transmission capacity and minimal physical footprint are both required. This cable bridges the gap between high-density switching installations and equipment racks, reducing weight and installation strain compared to standard fiber runs while maintaining full 100G performance across supported transceiver modules.
Key Features
- 100G Transmission Rating: Supports multi-gigabit backbone runs and inter-switch connectivity without bandwidth compromise. Essential for modern enterprise networks where 40G, 100G, and emerging 400G architectures coexist.
- 30-Meter Run Length: Covers extended horizontal and vertical cable paths between server racks, patch panels, and switch appliances without requiring intermediate splitters or regeneration.
- Lightweight Construction: Reduced cable mass simplifies routing through cable trays, overhead conduit, and patch panel arrays. Lowers strain on cable management hardware and reduces labor effort during installation and reconfiguration.
- Standard Fiber-Optic Connectors: Compatible with SFP+ transceiver modules and fiber-optic ports on enterprise switching platforms from major vendors. Works across Ubiquiti switching equipment and any standards-compliant 100G-capable infrastructure.
- Field-Deployable Design: Supports modular cabling strategies in greenfield deployments and existing installations requiring phased network upgrades or equipment replacement without full infrastructure replacement.
- Data Center and Enterprise Ready: Designed for high-density patch panel environments where space, weight, and cable routing efficiency directly impact physical infrastructure cost and operational overhead.
Integration & Compatibility
The UACC-OFC-S2-LULU-30M integrates with any Ubiquiti switching and routing equipment supporting 100G fiber connectivity, as well as third-party enterprise switching platforms with standard SFP+ fiber ports. Verify transceiver module compatibility with your equipment manufacturer before deployment. This cable is suitable for backbone runs between access and core layers, inter-switch links (ISL), and equipment-to-patch-panel connections in enterprise data centers, network operations centers, and large-scale facility deployments.
When planning fiber infrastructure, account for bend radius limits and avoid routing near high-heat sources or electrical conduit. Consult your cable management design and equipment specifications to confirm run length and connector type compatibility before installation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the UACC-OFC-S2-LULU-30M compatible with non-Ubiquiti switches?
A: Yes. The cable uses standard fiber-optic connectors and is compatible with any enterprise switch, router, or appliance equipped with standard SFP+ fiber ports. Verify that your equipment supports 100G fiber transmission and uses compatible transceiver modules.
Q: What is the minimum bend radius for this cable?
A: Consult the Ubiquiti technical documentation or the cable jacket label for bend radius specifications. Exceeding the minimum radius can degrade signal quality or cause connector damage. Plan cable routing routes with adequate radius curves.
Q: Can I use this cable outdoors?
A: This cable is designed for indoor data center and enterprise network environments. For outdoor or exposed outdoor-to-indoor runs, use outdoor-rated fiber cables with UV-resistant jackets and appropriate environmental certification.
Q: Does the 30-meter length work for all backbone distances?
A: The 30-meter length suits most inter-rack and horizontal cabling runs within a single facility floor or room. For longer distances, standard single-mode fiber (SMF) cables rated for 2km+ transmission are available separately; confirm distance requirements before purchase.

The UACC-OFC-S2-LULU-30M delivers straightforward 100G fiber connectivity in a form factor that doesn't fight your cable management infrastructure. At 30 meters, this cable bridges typical inter-rack distances and handles equipment-to-patch-panel runs without adding unnecessary bulk or weight to your switching fabric. If your data center or network operations center is consolidating to higher-speed fiber infrastructure, this cable eliminates one source of installation friction.
Technical Highlights:
- 100G Transmission Capacity: Supports modern multi-gigabit backbone architectures without speed negotiation or performance loss. Critical for organizations moving from 40G to 100G switching layers.
- 30-Meter Span: Covers horizontal and vertical runs between racks and patch panels in most single-facility deployments. Reduces handling and splice count compared to multiple shorter cables.
- Lightweight Design: Measurable advantage in high-density patch panel arrays and overhead cable trays where weight and routing complexity drive labor cost. Every kilogram saved across 100+ cables adds up during installation and future reconfiguration.
Deployment Considerations:
- Verify your switches and routers support 100G fiber operation and have compatible SFP+ transceiver modules installed. Not all Ubiquiti equipment supports 100G out of the box.
- Bend radius is non-negotiable: exceeding the manufacturer limit introduces signal loss and eventual connector failure. Plan cable routes with sweeping curves, not sharp corners.
- This cable is indoor-only. Outdoor backbone runs or rooftop equipment cross-connects require UV-resistant, temperature-rated fiber alternatives.
Deploy the UACC-OFC-S2-LULU-30M when upgrading access-to-core fiber runs in existing data centers or building new 100G infrastructure where weight and installation efficiency matter. It's not a fit for long-haul inter-site links or outdoor exposure—those require different fiber types and environmental ratings.
