InfiniBand/fibre optic cable EFB Elektronik SC/SC 50/125µ 1m

The EFB Elektronik SC/SC 50/125µ 1m fibre optic cable is a single-mode/multimode-compatible patch lead with SC connectors on both ends and a 1 metre length. Designed for short-distance links in racks, patch panels and networking equipment, the cable supports high-bandwidth data transmission with low insertion loss. Its 50/125 µm core/cladding construction and standardized SC terminations make it suitable for use in data centres, telecom rooms and local network backbones where consistent optical performance is required.

Advantages

This SC/SC patch cable provides reliable connector alignment and stable optical contact thanks to standardized SC ferrules. The 50/125 µm fibre geometry offers a balance between bandwidth and ease of handling for multimode network segments. At one metre length it minimises excess slack in dense rack environments and reduces the need for additional cable management. The cable is manufactured to deliver low signal attenuation and consistent performance across short link distances.

Suitable for

• Patch connections between switches, transceivers and patch panels in data centres
• Short-distance optical links in server rooms and telecom closets
• Multimode network segments requiring SC terminations
• Laboratory or test setups where standardised SC connectors are needed

Key specifications

• Connector type: SC to SC
• Fibre type: 50/125 µm multimode
• Length: 1 m
• Typical use: short-distance patching and interconnects
• Colour options: beige, black, orange, red

How to use

Inspect connector endfaces for contamination before installation and clean with appropriate fibre cleaning tools if necessary. Insert the SC connectors into the corresponding SC sockets on devices or patch panels until they click into place. Route the cable with gentle bends; avoid tight radii and mechanical strain to preserve optical performance. For removal, depress the SC latch and pull straight out to prevent damage to the ferrule or mating adapter.

Recommendations

Store and install the cable in environments within typical indoor temperature and humidity ranges, avoiding prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or sources of heat. Use fibre cleaning wipes or alcohol-based cleaning pens on connector endfaces to maintain low insertion loss. When deploying multiple fibres in racks, label both ends and use short-length management to reduce signal reflections and maintain easy service access.
