Fibre optic cable EFB Elektronik O0319FT.1 1 m

The EFB Elektronik O0319FT.1 is a 1 m OM4 fibre optic cable with LC connectors on both ends. Designed for short-reach high-speed networking, the cable features a 50 µm core diameter and supports full duplex transmission to deliver low-loss, high-bandwidth connections between compatible network devices. Its OM4 grading optimises performance for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and higher data rates over multimode fibre links.

Advantages

This OM4 fibre cable provides consistent signal integrity and reduced modal dispersion thanks to the 50 µm core, supporting reliable high-speed data transfer. LC connectors on both ends offer a compact footprint and straightforward plug-and-play installation in transceivers and patch panels. The 1 m length minimises excess cabling in rack and desktop environments, improving cable management and reducing insertion loss associated with long patch cords.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in data centres and server rooms
• Short-range multimode fibre links between switches, routers and transceivers
• Patch panel to transceiver or SFP+ module connections
• Copper-to-fibre migration setups where compact LC terminations are required

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OM4 multimode
• Core diameter: 50 µm
• Connector type: LC to LC
• Length: 1 m
• Transmission mode: full duplex
• Typical application: short-reach high-bandwidth links (e.g., 10 GbE)

How to use

Inspect connectors and ensure dust caps are removed before insertion. Insert each LC connector into the corresponding LC port on the network devices or patch panel until it clicks into place, observing proper orientation. Use gentle, straight pulls to disconnect to avoid damaging the ferrules. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it with cable ties or organisers to maintain the minimum bend radius and prevent signal degradation.

Recommendations

Maintain clean connector endfaces by using appropriate fibre cleaning tools and dust caps when not in use. For best performance, avoid tight bends and excessive tension; follow manufacturer-specified minimum bend radius and handle the cable by the connector bodies rather than the fibre near the termination points.
