Black Box EFN110-020M-STST

Overview

The Black Box EFN110-020M-STST is an OM1 multimode fiber optic patch cable designed to provide reliable connectivity over a distance of 65.6 feet (20 meters). It serves as a critical link between network devices such as switches and patch panels, ensuring data transmission with minimal signal loss thanks to its ST connectors with ceramic ferrules. This cable is well suited for data centers, campus networks, and lab environments where consistent optical performance is essential.

Key features

• OM1 multimode fiber supports short-to-medium distance data transmission with stable signal integrity.
• ST to ST connectors with ceramic ferrules reduce insertion loss to approximately 0.3 dB, preserving signal quality.
• Durable PVC jacket protects the fiber core while maintaining flexibility across a wide temperature range from -4 to 167 °F.
• Compliance with IEC 60793-2 standards ensures compatibility and long-term optical performance alongside other certified components.

Connectivity and compatibility

This fiber optic patch cable is designed to connect devices equipped with ST connectors, commonly found in legacy and industrial networking equipment. Its OM1 multimode fiber core supports typical data center and campus backbone applications where distances do not exceed the cable’s length. The cable’s adherence to IEC 60793-2 standards guarantees it will work seamlessly with other compliant fiber optic components, making it a dependable choice for expanding or maintaining existing network infrastructure.

Ideal uses and environments

The cable fits well in environments requiring stable and low-loss optical connections over moderate distances, such as linking switches to patch panels in data centers or extending backbone runs across campus networks. Its rugged PVC jacket and broad temperature tolerance make it suitable for both controlled indoor settings and more demanding lab or industrial spaces. Network professionals seeking a straightforward, reliable fiber optic solution will find this cable meets those needs without unnecessary complexity.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
