Fibre optic cable EFB Elektronik O7413.2-1.2 2m 2x SC Aqua

The EFB Elektronik O7413.2-1.2 is a 2-meter OM3 fibre optic patch cable with SC connectors on both ends. Designed for multimode networks, this 50 µm core cable supports full-duplex data transmission and is suitable for high-speed links in structured cabling environments. The aqua jacket identifies it as OM3 grade fibre, commonly used for short to medium distance data centre and backbone connections.

Advantages

This 2 m OM3 fibre cable provides low insertion loss and consistent modal performance for reliable short-range high-bandwidth connections. Dual SC connectors ensure straightforward push-pull mating and secure mechanical coupling. The standardized 50 µm core supports common multimode transceivers and active equipment, while the aqua colour of the jacket simplifies identification and cable management in racks and patch panels.

Suitable for

• Data centre patching and rack-to-rack connections
• Server and switch uplinks using OM3 multimode transceivers
• Fiber backbone links within buildings and telecommunications rooms
• High-speed short-range interconnects (10 Gigabit Ethernet and similar)

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OM3 multimode
• Core diameter: 50 µm
• Length: 2 m
• Connector type: SC to SC, duplex
• Jacket colour: aqua
• Transmission: full duplex

How to use

Route the fiber cable in the cable tray or patching area avoiding sharp bends and mechanical stress. Remove protective dust caps from the SC connectors before insertion into the transceiver or patch panel ports, then push the connector into the adapter until it clicks into place. For duplex connections ensure correct orientation of transmit and receive channels. After installation, secure and label the cable to maintain tidy cable management and to facilitate future changes or troubleshooting.

Usage recommendations

Handle the fibre with care: avoid bending radii below manufacturer guidelines, keep connectors capped when not in use, and perform connector cleaning before mating to reduce loss and maintain signal integrity. Use this OM3 cable for short to medium-range multimode applications such as 10 Gigabit Ethernet within data centres and building backbones.
