EFB Elektronik O0937.10 InfiniBand fibre optic cable 10 m E-2000 LC OS2

The EFB Elektronik O0937.10 InfiniBand fibre optic cable 10 m E-2000 LC OS2 is a singlemode duplex patch cable designed for high-speed, long-distance optical links. Featuring an E-2000 (LSH) connector on one end and an LC connector on the other, this 10 metre cable uses a 9 µm core diameter (OS2) fibre to support stable, low-loss transmission suited to InfiniBand networks and other high-performance interconnects.

Advantages

This OS2 singlemode cable provides low attenuation and consistent signal integrity over longer runs compared with multimode alternatives. The combination of an E-2000 (LSH) connector and an LC connector ensures compatibility with equipment that requires high-precision ferrule alignment and reliable mechanical protection. Full duplex support enables simultaneous bidirectional communication for typical InfiniBand and high-throughput networking setups.

Suitable for

• InfiniBand interconnects in server racks and compute clusters
• Data centre uplinks and long-distance patching
• High-performance computing (HPC) networking
• Telecommunications equipment requiring OS2 singlemode fibre
• Connections between optical transceivers with E-2000 and LC ports

Key specifications

• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Length: 10 m
• Connector A: E-2000 (LSH)
• Connector B: LC
• Mode: Duplex, full duplex operation

How to use

Connect the E-2000 (LSH) end to the corresponding E-2000 port and the LC end to the LC port on the opposite device. Ensure connectors and transceiver ports are clean and free from dust before insertion to minimize insertion loss. Route the cable following standard bend radius recommendations for singlemode fibre, secure it with suitable cable management to avoid strain, and verify the optical link using the host equipment or an optical power meter and light source.

Recommendations

Do not exceed recommended bend radius; avoid tight bends and pressure on the cable. Use dust caps when connectors are not engaged and perform regular cleaning with appropriate fibre cleaning tools. For installations in demanding environments, consider protective routing and strain relief to maintain long-term signal performance.
