Fibre optic cable EFB Elektronik 55102.1

The EFB Elektronik 55102.1 is an OM1 multimode fibre optic cable with a 62.5 µm core diameter, designed for indoor network installations. It is intended for use as trunk, patch and adapter cable in shafts, underfloor areas, riser/backbone installations and horizontal cabling to work areas or fiber-to-the-desk (FTTD) connections. The cable is non-metallic, halogen-free and gel-free, with an identifiable orange jacket. Rated for operation between -20°C and 60°C and for installation between -5°C and 50°C, it supports connector assembly on site.

Advantages

The OM1 fibre construction provides reliable short-distance data transmission and compatibility with common multimode equipment. Non-metallic and halogen-free materials reduce risk in indoor environments, while the gel-free design simplifies termination and connector assembly. The orange jacket aids identification in installations and the specified temperature ranges cover typical indoor installation and operating conditions.

Suitable for

• Indoor trunk and backbone cabling in shafts and riser areas
• Underfloor and raised-floor installations
• Horizontal/tertiary cabling to work areas and FTTD connections
• Patch, adapter and on-site connector assembly

How to use

Plan routing through shafts, riser areas or underfloor channels according to building standards and local codes. Use the cable as trunk, patch or adapter cable and perform connector assembly where required using compatible multimode connectors for OM1 fibre. Follow manufacturer instructions and standard fibre handling procedures to avoid bending beyond minimum radius, contamination of end faces, and mechanical damage during installation. Complete testing of continuity and optical loss after termination is recommended.

Recommendations

Store and install the cable within the specified temperature ranges; avoid exposure to direct sunlight and follow EFB Elektronik guidelines for bend radius and connector types. For reliable short-distance multimode performance, match OM1 fibre with compatible transceivers and connectors.
