Fibre optic cable EFB Elektronik O0387.2 2 m LC SC Yellow

The EFB Elektronik O0387.2 2 m LC SC Yellow is a single-mode OS2 fibre optic patch cable designed for reliable signal transmission in structured cabling and telecommunication environments. It has LC and SC terminations and a 9 µm core diameter that supports full duplex links, offering low attenuation and stable performance for long-distance connections. The yellow jacket provides standard colour coding for single-mode fibres, helping with quick identification and neat cable management.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable provides consistent single-mode transmission with low insertion loss due to its 9 µm core and OS2 specification. The combination of LC and SC connectors ensures compatibility with a wide range of network equipment and patch panels. At 2 m length it is suitable for short interconnects while maintaining low reflectance and high signal integrity. The yellow outer jacket simplifies identification in multi-cable installations and reduces the chance of misconnection.

Suitable for

• Connecting single-mode network devices and optical transceivers
• Patching between LC and SC ports on switches, routers, and patch panels
• Data centres and telecommunications racks where full duplex links are required
• Laboratory and testing setups requiring short, reliable single-mode links

Key specifications

• Fibre type: single-mode, OS2
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Length: 2 m
• Connector types: LC to SC
• Duplex mode: full duplex

How to use

Inspect connectors and ports for dust or debris before connection. Align the LC and SC connectors with the corresponding ports and insert until the connector latch engages. Ensure the cable is routed without sharp bends; maintain the manufacturer-recommended minimum bend radius to avoid additional attenuation. For removal, depress the LC latch or the SC push mechanism and pull straight out to prevent damage to the ferrule or connector housing. Use dust caps when connectors are not in use to protect end faces.

Usage recommendations

Store and handle the cable in a clean environment, avoid twisting the cable and limit tensile stress. For permanent installations, secure the cable with appropriate ties or Velcro straps and maintain sufficient slack for service. Regularly inspect end faces and clean with proper fibre cleaning tools to preserve optimal optical performance.
