Glasvezelkabel EFB Elektronik LC-ST 50/125µ 10 m

The EFB Elektronik LC-ST 50/125µ 10 m fibre optic cable is an OM4 multimode patch lead designed for short- to medium-range high-speed links. With a 50 µm core diameter and full-duplex configuration, this 10 meter cable supports bidirectional data transmission between network devices. One end carries an LC connector and the other an ST connector, enabling compatibility with equipment that uses either connector type and simplifying integration into existing fibre installations.

Advantages

This OM4 50/125µ cable provides improved bandwidth and lower attenuation compared with lower-grade multimode fibres, making it suitable for higher data rates and longer modal bandwidth distances in LAN and data centre environments. The mixed LC–ST connector pairing offers flexibility when connecting devices with different connector interfaces without additional adapters. The 10 m length offers balance between reach and manageable cable routing in rack or floor installations.

Suitable for

• Short- to medium-distance connections within data centres and server rooms
• Interconnection of switches, transceivers and patch panels with LC or ST ports
• High-speed multimode network segments requiring OM4 performance
• Laboratory or test bench setups where LC–ST mating is needed

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OM4 multimode
• Core/cladding diameter: 50/125 µm
• Configuration: full duplex (two fibres)
• Connector A: LC
• Connector B: ST
• Cable length: 10 m
• Typical application: multimode high-speed links (LAN, data centre)

How to use

Route the cable avoiding tight bends and sharp edges; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for multimode fibre to prevent excess attenuation. Insert the LC connector into the LC duplex port and the ST connector into the corresponding ST socket, ensuring proper alignment and secure engagement. Use both fibres for full-duplex connections, matching transmit and receive pairs on each end. Clean connector endfaces with suitable fibre cleaning tools before making the connection to ensure low loss and reliable performance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this OM4 50/125µ cable in environments where multimode transceivers and equipment are specified. Avoid routing near strong electromagnetic interference sources when possible, store the cable on reels or neatly coiled when not in use, and follow manufacturer guidelines for connector cleaning and handling to maintain low insertion loss and long-term reliability.
