Fibre optic cable EFB Elektronik MTPF48MTPFOS2-10-A MTP OS2 10 m Yellow

The EFB Elektronik MTPF48MTPFOS2-10-A MTP OS2 10 m Yellow is a 10 metre single-mode fibre optic cable with MTP connectors on both ends, designed for optimized InfiniBand and high-density network environments. The cable uses OS2 fibre with a core diameter of 9 µm for low attenuation over long distances. Its yellow jacket provides standard colour coding for single-mode links, aiding identification and rack management in data centres and telecommunication closets.

Advantages

This MTP-to-MTP cable supports high-speed, low-loss transmission suitable for long-reach links due to the OS2 single-mode fibre and 9 µm core. The 10 m length balances reach and manageability for rack-to-rack and equipment-to-equipment connections. Factory-terminated MTP connectors provide consistent ferrule alignment and reduced insertion loss compared with field-terminated alternatives. The yellow outer jacket enables quick visual identification of single-mode cabling runs in mixed-fibre installations.

Suitable for

• InfiniBand uplinks and inter-switch connections
• Data centre rack-to-rack and equipment interconnects
• Long-distance single-mode links within campus or building backbones
• High-density patch panels and MTP cassette deployments

Key specifications

• Cable length: 10 m
• Connector type: MTP to MTP (both ends)
• Fibre type: OS2 single-mode
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Product colour: Yellow

How to use

Install the fibre cable by routing it through designated cable management paths and avoiding sharp bends to maintain minimum bend radius. Plug the MTP connectors into compatible MTP ports or MTP cassettes, ensuring proper orientation and secure latch engagement. Verify optical continuity and insertion loss with appropriate test equipment after installation. When dressing the cable, secure it to racks or trays to prevent strain on the connectors and maintain consistent bend radii.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable to prevent contamination of connector endfaces; use dust caps when connectors are not connected. Clean connector endfaces with approved fibre cleaning tools before mating and perform post-installation testing for link loss. Avoid tight bends and mechanical stress, and follow data centre cable management practices to preserve performance over time.
