EFB Elektronik O6023.1 Fibre Optic Patch Cable, ST to ST, OM1, 1 m, Orange

The EFB Elektronik O6023.1 is a high-quality duplex fibre optic patch cable designed for reliable data transmission in professional IT environments. Featuring ST to ST connectors, this 1-meter cable is built with OM1 multimode fibre technology, utilizing a 62.5/125 µm core diameter to support efficient signal transfer. The cable is encased in a durable orange LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket, which enhances safety by minimizing toxic emissions in the event of fire, making it a dependable choice for structured cabling systems.

Advantages

This fibre optic patch cable offers excellent signal integrity and durability for demanding network applications. The use of high-grade OM1 multimode fibre ensures consistent performance for short-range data communication. The LSZH jacket provides a significant safety advantage, meeting strict fire safety standards for indoor installations. Its duplex configuration allows for simultaneous bidirectional data flow, while the robust ST connectors ensure a secure and stable physical connection within patch panels and networking equipment.

Suitable for

• Local Area Networks (LAN)
• Data center patch panel connections
• Fiber optic equipment interconnects
• Building backbone cabling

This cable may not be suitable for long-distance telecommunications or high-speed backbone links requiring single-mode fibre technology. It is also not intended for outdoor use where exposure to direct sunlight, moisture, or extreme temperature fluctuations could compromise the integrity of the LSZH jacket.

Key specifications

• Connector type: ST to ST
• Fibre type: Multimode OM1
• Core diameter: 62.5 µm
• Cable length: 1 meter
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Configuration: Duplex
• Cable color: Orange

To use this patch cable, ensure that both the transmitting and receiving devices are equipped with compatible ST ports. Carefully remove the protective dust caps from the connectors immediately before insertion. Align the ST connector key with the slot on the port, push in, and twist clockwise to lock the connection securely. Avoid bending the cable beyond its minimum bend radius to prevent signal loss or physical damage to the glass fibre core.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your networking equipment supports ST-style connectors.
• Confirm that your existing infrastructure is compatible with OM1 multimode fibre.
• Measure the required distance to ensure the 1-meter length is sufficient for your setup.
• Check if your installation environment requires LSZH-rated cabling for fire safety compliance.

For optimal performance, keep the fibre optic connectors clean and free of dust or debris. Always use a lint-free wipe or specialized fibre cleaning tool before making a connection to ensure the highest signal quality.
