Fibre optic cable EFB Elektronik O0350.0,5-1.2

The EFB Elektronik O0350.0,5-1.2 is a 0.5 m OS2 single-mode fibre optic cable equipped with LC connectors on both ends, configured as 2x LC to 2x LC for full duplex links. With a 9 µm core diameter it is designed for reliable high-speed data transmission in network environments that require single-mode performance and low attenuation over short patching distances.

Advantages

This fibre patch cable offers a compact connector format (LC) that saves rack space and simplifies port density in patch panels. Its OS2 single-mode construction and 9 µm core provide low signal loss and stable optical characteristics suitable for high-bandwidth links. The 0.5 m length reduces excess slack in short interconnect runs, improving cable management and airflow in racks.

Suitable for

• Short patching between transceivers and switches in data centres
• Interconnects in server racks and distribution panels
• High-speed single-mode links requiring LC connectors
• Point-to-point connections for optical network equipment

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OS2 single-mode
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connector type: 2x LC to 2x LC, duplex
• Polishing type: UPC (commonly used for single-mode LC connectors)
• Jacket: low-smoke, PVC or LSZH options typical for patch cables (verify product variant)

How to use

Connect one LC duplex plug to the transceiver or port on the networking device and the matching LC duplex plug to the receiving device, ensuring correct polarity for TX/RX pairs. Handle the cable by the connector bodies and avoid tight bends near the connector ends; follow the minimum bend radius specified by the equipment manufacturer. For installation, route the cable through cable management panels or trays and secure excess length to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Inspect connector end-faces for contamination before installation and clean with appropriate fibre cleaning tools if necessary. Use this 0.5 m OS2 LC duplex cable for short patching where single-mode performance is required; for longer links choose rated single-mode patch cords with appropriate loss specifications.
