EFB Elektronik O0350.1,5 OS2 LC-LC Duplex Fibre Optic Cable 1.5 m Yellow

The EFB Elektronik O0350.1,5 is a high-performance OS2 single-mode duplex fibre optic cable designed for reliable and high-speed data transmission. Measuring 1.5 meters in length, this cable features precision-engineered LC connectors on both ends, ensuring a secure and stable connection for professional networking equipment. The cable is constructed with a 9/125 µm core diameter and protected by a robust LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket, which minimizes toxic emissions in the event of fire, making it a safe choice for modern data centers and office environments.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable offers exceptional signal integrity and low attenuation, which is critical for long-distance data transmission in single-mode network infrastructures. The use of high-quality materials ensures durability and resistance to environmental factors, while the LSZH jacket provides an essential safety feature for indoor installations. Its compact 1.5-meter length is ideal for patching between switches, routers, and patch panels, helping to maintain an organized and efficient server rack setup.

Suitable for

• High-speed telecommunications networks
• Data center server-to-switch connections
• Enterprise-grade local area networks
• Fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) installations
• Professional network patching and infrastructure management

When it may not be suitable

This cable is designed specifically for single-mode OS2 applications and will not function in multi-mode (OM1-OM4) network environments. Additionally, the 1.5-meter length may be insufficient for installations requiring long-distance runs between different rooms or buildings.

Key specifications

• Cable type: OS2 single-mode
• Connector type: LC to LC duplex
• Core diameter: 9/125 µm
• Cable length: 1.5 m
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Cable construction: I-V(ZN) H
• Color: Yellow

How to use

To use the cable, carefully remove the protective dust caps from the LC connectors. Align the connector with the corresponding port on your networking device or patch panel and insert it until you hear a distinct click, indicating that the latch is engaged. Ensure that the cable is not bent beyond its minimum bend radius to prevent signal loss or physical damage to the glass fiber core. When disconnecting, press the release tab on the LC connector before pulling it gently from the port.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your networking hardware supports LC-type connections.
• Ensure that your network infrastructure is based on single-mode (OS2) fiber standards.
• Measure the required distance between devices to confirm that 1.5 meters is sufficient.
• Check if your local building codes require LSZH-rated cabling for your specific installation environment.

Usage recommendations

Always keep the connector ferrules clean and free of dust or oils to maintain optimal signal performance. Use a dedicated fiber optic cleaning tool if you suspect contamination.
