Fibre optic cable EFB Elektronik 55002.1

The EFB Elektronik 55002.1 is an OM2 multimode fibre optic cable with a 50 µm core diameter designed for indoor networking. It supports trunk, patch and adapter connections and is suitable for installation in shafts, underfloor areas and riser/backbone routes. The cable is non-metallic, halogen-free and gel-free, and allows connector assembly for custom terminations.

Advantages

The cable offers standardized OM2 multimode performance for high-speed data transmission in local networks. Its non-metallic, halogen-free and gel-free construction reduces fire and corrosion risks and simplifies building-code compliance. Operating and installation temperature ranges accommodate typical indoor environments and installation conditions.

Suitable for

• Indoor trunk and backbone cabling in commercial or residential buildings
• Vertical riser installations between floors (backbone)
• Horizontal cabling to work areas and fibre-to-the-desk (FTTD)
• Patch and adapter cable assemblies with field connectorization

How to use

Plan the route according to building layouts and standards for indoor cabling (shafts, underfloor spaces, risers and work-area horizontals). Use appropriate cable management and bend-radius control during installation. Terminate the cable with compatible multimode connectors or pre-terminated adapter assemblies; follow connector manufacturer instructions for polishing or crimping. Ensure connectors and splices meet required insertion-loss and return-loss specifications for OM2 fibres.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical damage. Install within the specified temperature ranges and follow local fire-safety regulations for indoor cabling. Use suitable routing and strain relief when deploying in risers and underfloor channels.
