Fiber patch cable MTP-F/LC 12-fiber OM5 LSZH lime green, 7.5 m — EFB Elektronik

The Fiber patch cable MTP-F/LC 12-fiber OM5 LSZH lime green, 7.5 m from EFB Elektronik is a multi-fiber trunk cable designed for high-density optical connectivity. One end features an MTP®/MPO-style multi-fiber connector and the other end splits into 12 LC simplex connectors, providing compact, organized connections between equipment, patch panels and trunk lines. Constructed with OM5 multimode fibers and a low-smoke, zero-halogen (LSZH) outer jacket in lime green, the cable supports shortwave wavelength division multiplexing and is suited to modern data centre and backbone cabling environments.

Advantages

This patch cable offers a 12-fiber configuration for efficient space usage and simplified multi-channel routing. OM5 multimode fiber enables improved bandwidth performance for shortwave wavelength multiplexing, reducing the need for multiple parallel fibers. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and hazardous gas emissions in the event of fire, which is important in enclosed or public spaces. The combination of an MTP-style multi-fiber interface with LC terminations enables fast, high-density transitions between trunk and device-level connections.

How to use

Route the cable along intended cable trays or within rack cable management, avoiding tight bends and sharp edges that could stress the fiber. Insert the MTP-style connector into compatible multi-fiber adapters or ports, ensuring correct keying and polarity. Plug the individual LC connectors into corresponding LC ports on patch panels or equipment. Verify signal continuity and loss using appropriate test equipment after installation to confirm correct connections and acceptable attenuation.

Recommendations

For best performance, maintain the minimum bend radius specified for multimode fiber, keep connectors clean using approved cleaning tools before mating, and use labelled routing to preserve channel mapping when deploying multi-fiber assemblies in data centres or telecom environments.
