Fibre optic cable EFB Elektronik MTPF12MTPFOS2-5-A MTP OS2 5 m Yellow

The EFB Elektronik MTPF12MTPFOS2-5-A is a 5 m fibre optic cable with MTP connectors on both ends and an OS2 multimode specification optimized for long-distance single-mode transmission. Designed for professional network installations, this yellow cable combines a 9 µm core diameter with low attenuation characteristics to support high-bandwidth data links and InfiniBand applications in data centers and enterprise networks.

Advantages

This MTP to MTP fibre cable offers consistent optical performance, a standard colour code for easy identification and straightforward deployment in structured cabling systems. The OS2-compliant fibre ensures reduced signal loss over longer runs, while the 5 m length provides flexibility for rack-to-rack or shelf-to-shelf connections. The MTP connectors deliver reliable multi-fiber alignment and low insertion loss for dense parallel optic setups.

Suitable for

• Data centre interconnects and trunking
• InfiniBand high-performance computing links
• Server to patch panel connections in enterprise networks
• Structured cabling in telecom and IT rooms

Key specifications

• Length: 5 m
• Connector type: MTP on both ends
• Fibre type: OS2 single-mode
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Colour: Yellow

How to use

Route the cable along existing cable management paths, avoiding tight bends and excessive tension. Align and insert the MTP connectors into compatible MTP ports on transceivers, patch panels or MTP adaptors until the connector latch engages. Verify link status on networking equipment and perform optical testing if required to confirm attenuation and continuity. When disconnecting, depress the connector latch and pull straight out to avoid damage.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable to prevent kinks; maintain a minimum bend radius as specified by your equipment manufacturer. Use appropriate dust caps on unused MTP connectors and perform end-face inspection and cleaning before connection to ensure optimal performance.
