EFB Elektronik O2513.0,5 Fibre Optic Cable

The EFB Elektronik O2513.0,5 is a 0.5 m OS2 fibre optic cable with SC connectors on both ends. It has a 9 µm single-mode core designed for high-speed data transmission with low attenuation, suitable for short interconnects between passive interfaces and active device ports in structured cabling environments.

Advantages

This fibre jumper provides a standardized connection according to structured cabling practices, featuring SC connectors for reliable mechanical mating and a 9 µm single-mode core that supports long-wavelength transmission with minimal signal loss. The 0.5 m length reduces excess slack in patching areas and helps maintain predictable link performance.

Suitable for

• Patch panels to active equipment connections in data centres
• Short interconnects between network devices and fibre transceivers
• Structured cabling installations requiring OS2 single-mode links

Key specifications

• Length: 0.5 m
• Fibre type: Single-mode (OS2)
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Connector type: SC — both ends
• Application: Optical patchcord for data networking

How to use

Connect one SC connector to the passive interface (for example, a patch panel) and the other SC connector to the active device port or transceiver. Ensure connector endfaces are clean before mating to avoid signal degradation. Route the cable without tight bends and secure it to avoid strain on connectors.

Recommendations

Avoid contaminating the SC ferrule ends; use a dust cap when not in use and clean endfaces with approved fibre cleaning tools. For best results, use this 0.5 m jumper where short, direct connections are required to minimise excess cable length and maintain predictable optical performance.
