Fibre optic cable EFB Elektronik O2513.1 1 m SC Yellow

The EFB Elektronik O2513.1 is a 1 m single-mode OS2 fibre optic patch cable with SC connectors on both ends. Designed for network links that require low attenuation and stable signal transmission, this yellow cable has a 9 µm core diameter and supports full duplex communication. Its standardized SC terminations ensure a push-pull connection for rack and patch panel installations, while the bright yellow jacket simplifies identification in structured cabling environments.

Advantages

The cable provides low insertion loss and consistent optical performance for single-mode networks over typical telecom and data centre distances. The SC connectors offer a secure connection and easy handling during installation or reconfiguration. The 1 m length is suitable for short patching between equipment in racks or local distribution points, and the yellow outer jacket aids quick visual management of fibre runs.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting network equipment within racks and patch panels
• Short-distance single-mode links in data centres and server rooms
• Telecommunications and ISP backbone patching
• Lab and test bench optical measurements and configuration

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Single-mode OS2
• Length: 1 m
• Connector type: SC to SC
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Jacket colour: Yellow
• Mode: Full duplex

How to use

Connect each SC connector to the corresponding SC adapter or transceiver port, ensuring the connectors are clean and free of dust before mating. Align the push-pull SC connectors until they click into place. For best performance, avoid tight bends and secure the cable along the rack or tray to prevent strain on the connectors. When disconnecting, pull the SC connector body rather than the cable jacket to avoid damaging the termination.

Recommendations

Clean connector end faces with an appropriate fibre cleaning tool before insertion, maintain bend radii above the manufacturer-recommended minimum, and store spare cables in a dust-free environment. Use this single-mode OS2 cable for distances and applications matching its attenuation characteristics and connector type.
