Fibre optic cable EFB Elektronik MTPF12MTPFOS2-1

The EFB Elektronik MTPF12MTPFOS2-1 is an OS2 single-mode fibre optic cable with MTP connectors on both ends and a 9 µm core diameter. Designed for long-distance and high-bandwidth applications, this yellow-coded fibre offers low attenuation and predictable optical performance for data centre links, enterprise backbones and telecommunication routes. The dual MTP termination supports multi-fibre connectivity in a compact connector housing, enabling dense cable routing and simplified panel management.

Advantages

This fibre cable delivers low insertion loss and high return loss consistent with OS2 single-mode specifications, which helps maintain signal integrity over extended runs. The use of MTP connectors provides a high-density, multi-fibre interface that speeds up installation and reduces connector footprint in patch panels. The yellow sheath colour provides standardised visual identification for single-mode cabling, aiding organisation in large installations.

Suitable for

• Long-distance optical links in data centres and campus networks
• High-speed backbone connections and fiber distribution frames
• Telecommunication and network operator infrastructure
• Environments requiring high-density MTP/MPO connectivity

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OS2 single-mode
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Connector type: MTP to MTP (multi-fibre connector)
• Sheath colour: yellow (single-mode identification)
• Designed for low attenuation and long-reach transmission

How to use

Inspect both MTP connectors and cable ends before installation to ensure cleanliness and absence of physical damage. Route the cable following standard bend-radius guidelines and secure it in trays or on racks to prevent strain on connectors. Plug the MTP connectors into compatible MTP adaptors, cassettes or transceivers, ensuring correct alignment and mating until the connector latch engages. Perform optical testing after installation to verify insertion loss and continuity.

Recommendations

Use appropriate cleaning tools and dust caps when handling MTP connectors, maintain minimum bend radius per manufacturer guidance, and verify compatibility of MTP pinning and gender with existing infrastructure before making permanent connections.
