Fiberkabel EFB Elektronik O0348.2 2 m ST lila

The EFB Elektronik O0348.2 is a 2 m OM4 fibre optic cable with ST connectors on both ends. It has a 50 µm core diameter designed for high-bandwidth transmission and low attenuation, suitable for data centre and network equipment interconnections. The cable conforms to structured cabling concepts where fibre patchcords provide the shortest link between passive interfaces and active device ports.

Advantages

The cable uses aramid yarn reinforcement for improved tensile resistance and long-term mechanical stability. Its LSZH (low smoke zero halogen) outer sheath is halogen-free and flame-retardant in accordance with IEC-60754-2, IEC-60332-1 and IEC-61034. Connectors are manufactured and tested to meet fibre connector quality grades (singlemode and multimode grade requirements) and each patch cord is 100% tested with an individual test protocol, ensuring consistent performance for OM4 multimode applications.

Suitable for

• Short-distance high-speed links in data centres
• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch connections
• Patch panels and equipment interconnects in LAN environments
• Multimode fibre applications requiring OM4 performance

Key specifications

• Length: 2 m
• Fibre type: OM4 multimode
• Core diameter: 50 µm
• Connector type: ST on both ends
• Sheath: LSZH (halogen-free, flame-retardant)
• Reinforcement: aramid yarn
• Individual test report: included (100% tested)

How to use

Connect the ST connectors to corresponding ST-compliant ports on devices or panel adaptors, ensuring correct alignment and a secure mechanical fit. Avoid tight bends and protect the cable from crushing or excessive tensile loads; the aramid reinforcement provides improved strain resistance but standard handling precautions for multimode fibre should be observed. Follow equipment manufacturer guidance for panel insertion and maintain clean connector end-faces to minimise signal loss.

Recommendations

For best results in OM4 multimode installations, keep cable runs within recommended distances for the targeted data rate, maintain proper bend radii, and use dust caps or clean connectors during installation and maintenance to preserve low attenuation and signal integrity.
