Fibre optic cable EFB Elektronik O3061.2 2m LC SC Orange

The EFB Elektronik O3061.2 is a 2-meter multimode OM1 fibre optic patch cable with LC connector on one end and SC connector on the other. Designed for full duplex data transmission, this orange cable has a 62.5 µm core diameter suitable for short-range connections within racks, patch panels and networking equipment. The cable combines standardized connectors and multimode fibre geometry to provide consistent signal coupling and straightforward installation in data centre and enterprise network environments.

Advantages

The cable provides reliable multimode performance with a 62.5 µm core diameter and standardized LC and SC terminations for broad compatibility. Its orange jacket improves visibility in crowded fibre bundles and simplifies identification during maintenance. At 2 metres length the cable is compact enough for tidy rack routing while long enough to bridge common patch panel and device distances. The full duplex design supports simultaneous bidirectional communication for typical fibre networking applications.

Suitable for

• Short-range multimode connections between patch panels and switches in data centres
• Interconnecting networking equipment in server rooms and telecom closets
• Upgrading or extending existing OM1 fibre runs within buildings
• Laboratory or test bench setups requiring LC–SC terminated multimode cable

Key specifications

• Fibre type: Multimode OM1
• Core diameter: 62.5 µm
• Connectors: LC to SC
• Length: 2 m
• Jacket colour: Orange
• Transmission mode: Full duplex

How to use

Verify that connected equipment supports multimode OM1 fibre and compatible LC and SC ports. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for multimode fibres. Insert the LC connector into the LC receptacle and the SC connector into the SC receptacle until each clicks or seats securely. Use cable management clips or ties to keep the run neat and reduce stress on the connectors. When disconnecting, depress the appropriate release mechanism on the connector before pulling to avoid damaging the ferrule or ferrule housing.

Usage recommendations

Inspect connector endfaces for dust or contamination before installation and clean with approved fibre-cleaning tools if necessary. Avoid kinking the cable and protect connector ends with dust caps when not in use. For runs longer than typical intra-rack distances, consider using higher-grade multimode fibre (OM3/OM4) or singlemode options depending on distance and bandwidth requirements.
