Glasvezelkabel EFB Elektronik O0318.5OM5 5 m 2x SC groen

The EFB Elektronik O0318.5OM5 5m 2x SC Green is a 5-metre OM5 multimode fibre optic cable with dual SC connectors, designed for full-duplex high-speed data transmission. With a 50 µm core diameter, the cable supports short- and medium-distance multimode links and is intended for use in data centres, server rooms and high-performance local area networks where reliable, low-loss optical connectivity is required.

Advantages

This OM5 fibre cable offers low insertion loss and reduced modal dispersion for improved signal integrity over multimode links. The dual SC connectors provide secure, easy mating and maintenance, while the 5 m length balances flexibility and reach for rack-to-rack or patch-panel connections. The green jacket provides clear visual identification of OM5 multimode fibre.

Suitable for

• Data centre patching between switches and servers
• High-performance local area network backbones
• Server room interconnects and patch panels
• Short- to medium-reach multimode optical links

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OM5 multimode
• Core diameter: 50 µm
• Connector type: SC on both ends (duplex)
• Length: 5 m
• Colour of jacket: Green (OM5 identification)
• Mode: Full duplex optical link

How to use

Verify that equipment transceivers accept multimode OM5 cables and that SC connectors are compatible with the device ports. Align and insert SC connectors into the corresponding ports until they click into place. Use the cable for rack-to-rack or patch-panel connections, avoiding tight bends and kinks that exceed the manufacturer's recommended minimum bend radius. For long-term installations, secure the cable with appropriate cable management to prevent strain at the connector ends.

Recommendations

Handle the fibre connector endfaces carefully to avoid contamination; clean connectors with suitable fibre cleaning tools before mating. Keep the cable away from sharp edges and high-heat sources, and follow workplace cable management practices to maintain signal performance and prolong service life.
