Fibre optic cable EFB Elektronik O0360FT.15 — 15 m OS2, LC to SC, I-V(ZN) HH, 9 µm, full duplex, yellow

The EFB Elektronik O0360FT.15 is a 15 m singlemode fibre optic patch cable designed for point-to-point connections in telecommunications and data centre environments. It uses OS2 singlemode fibre with a 9 µm core diameter and provides a full duplex link via an LC connector on one end and an SC connector on the other. The cable jacket is specified as I-V(ZN) HH and the cable is supplied in yellow, meeting common colour conventions for singlemode installations.

Advantages

This LC to SC singlemode cable supports full duplex transmission and is suitable for long-reach singlemode links. The 9 µm core diameter ensures compatibility with standard OS2 equipment and transceivers, while the LC and SC connector combination provides flexible interfacing to different patch panels and devices. A 15 m length offers moderate distance without the need for splicing, and the standardized yellow outer jacket aids in cable identification and management.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Interconnects between network switches, routers and patch panels
• Server and storage area network links requiring singlemode connections
• Connections between equipment with LC and SC ports
• Structured cabling in data centres, server rooms and telecom racks

How to use

Inspect both connector ferrules for contamination before installation and clean with appropriate fibre-cleaning tools if necessary. Route the cable along existing cable management pathways, avoiding sharp bends and mechanical stress; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended by the cable manufacturer. Insert the LC connector into the LC port and the SC connector into the SC adapter or device port until a positive seating is felt. For full duplex operation, ensure the transmit and receive ports on each end are correctly paired. Secure excess cable with Velcro straps rather than metal ties to avoid compression of the fibre.

Recommendations

Use this 15 m OS2 LC–SC patch cable for singlemode links where a direct LC to SC connection is required. Keep connector endfaces clean, avoid kinks and excessive pulling force, and store or route the cable in a protected tray or duct to maintain optical performance and mechanical integrity.
