Fibre optic cable EFB Elektronik MTPF08LCOS2-2 2 m

The EFB Elektronik MTPF08LCOS2-2 2 m is an OS2 multimode-designated fibre optic cable equipped with an MTP connector on one end and eight LC connectors on the other, designed for high-density optical installations. The cable has a 9 µm core diameter suitable for single-mode OS2 transmission, offers low attenuation for long-distance links, and has a yellow outer jacket for rapid visual identification in racks and cable trays. At 2 metres length, this fibre optic cable supports high-speed data transmission and is intended for structured cabling in data centres and high-performance networking environments.

Advantages

The cable combines an MTP high-density connector interface with eight LC terminations to simplify parallel optical connections and patching. Its OS2 single-mode core specification and 9 µm core diameter enable low signal loss and stable long-reach performance. The yellow jacket aids in visual management and separation of single-mode links from multimode infrastructure. Durable construction reduces handling damage risk during installation and maintenance.

Suitable for

• Data centre parallel optics and break-out connectivity
• High-speed backbone links and long-distance single-mode connections
• Patch panels, MPO/MTP trunking and dense cabling closets
• Network upgrades requiring conversion from MTP to multiple LC ports

Key specifications

• Cable length: 2 m
• Fibre type: OS2 (single-mode)
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Connector A: MTP (multi-fibre trunk connector)
• Connector B: 8 × LC connectors
• Jacket colour: yellow (single-mode identification)

How to use

Route the cable through the cable management path to avoid tight bends and excessive strain. Plug the MTP connector into the corresponding MTP/MPO port on the switch, transceiver or patch panel, ensuring proper keying orientation. Insert each LC connector into the respective LC ports or adapter slots, taking care to remove dust caps and to clean connector endfaces with approved fibre-cleaning tools prior to mating. Secure the cable to racks or trays with suitable fasteners to maintain bend radius and reduce mechanical stress.

Recommendations

Maintain a minimum bend radius as specified by standard single-mode fibre handling guidelines, clean connectors before every connection, and store spare cable length coiled loosely to prevent microbends. Use compatible MTP adapters and LC adapters rated for single-mode OS2 to preserve optical performance.
