Fibre optic cable EFB Elektronik O2073.5 5 m SC ST Yellow

The EFB Elektronik O2073.5 is a 5 m OS2 single-mode fibre optic cable with SC and ST connectors, designed to deliver reliable full-duplex data transmission. Featuring a 9 µm core diameter and a yellow jacket for easy identification, this cable is intended for use in structured cabling, point-to-point links and telecommunications equipment connections where single-mode performance is required.

Advantages

This fibre cable provides single-mode OS2 performance for low-loss, long-distance signal propagation and consistent optical characteristics. The combination of SC and ST connectors enables flexible termination options for legacy and modern network interfaces. Its 5 m length simplifies patching between equipment or within patch panels while the yellow outer sheath aids visual management in cabling runs.

Suitable for

• Patch connections in data centres and server rooms
• Interconnection between telecommunications devices and switches
• Fiber backbone segments and riser installations
• Testing and lab setups requiring single-mode links

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Single-mode OS2
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Length: 5 m
• Connector types: SC (one end) and ST (other end)
• Mode: Full duplex
• Cable colour: Yellow

How to use

Connect the SC connector to the corresponding SC port and the ST connector to the matching ST port on the network devices or patch panels. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to avoid signal loss; use appropriate fiber cleaning tools if necessary. Route the cable following existing cable management practices, avoid sharp bends and excessive tensile stress, and secure the cable with cable ties or clips as appropriate for the installation environment.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable in a dust-free environment, use protective caps on unused connectors, and perform optical power and continuity tests after installation to verify link quality and alignment with system requirements.
