EFB Elektronik O2519.3 Fibre Optic Patch Cable, LC to LC, 3 m, OS2 G.657.A2, Yellow

The EFB Elektronik O2519.3 is a high-performance fibre optic patch cable designed for reliable data transmission in demanding network environments. Measuring 3 meters in length, this single-mode cable features precision LC to LC connectors with APC polishing, ensuring minimal signal loss and high return loss performance. Built with G.657.A2 fibre technology, it offers excellent bend resistance, making it an ideal choice for complex cabling infrastructures where space is limited.

Advantages

This patch cable utilizes a high-quality LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket, which enhances safety by reducing toxic emissions in the event of fire, making it suitable for indoor installations in data centers and office buildings. The I-V(ZN) H construction provides robust physical protection for the internal fibre, ensuring long-term durability and signal integrity. Its compatibility with single-mode systems and the use of APC connectors allow for high-precision connections required in modern telecommunications and high-speed data networks.

Suitable for

• High-speed data center networking
• Telecommunications infrastructure
• Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) installations
• Enterprise local area networks (LAN)

When it may not be suitable

This cable is designed specifically for single-mode applications and will not function in multi-mode fibre optic systems. Additionally, the 3-meter length may be insufficient for long-distance outdoor runs or inter-building connections without appropriate protective conduit or housing.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 3 m
• Fibre type: Single-mode OS2 G.657.A2
• Connector type: LC to LC
• Polish type: APC
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• 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 immediately before insertion. Align the connector key with the corresponding port on your transceiver or patch panel and push until a click is heard, indicating a secure connection. Ensure the cable is not bent beyond its minimum bend radius during installation to maintain optimal signal performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your network equipment supports LC APC connectors.
• Ensure the 3-meter length is sufficient for your specific cable path.
• Confirm that your system requires single-mode OS2 fibre.

Usage recommendations: Always inspect and clean the fibre optic connector end-faces with appropriate cleaning tools before connecting to ensure the best signal quality and to prevent damage to the equipment ports.
