The JBX42155 represents a premium solution for professionals requiring dependable single mode fiber connectivity. Engineered with precision manufacturing standards, this 5-meter SC/APC to SC/APC duplex patch cable integrates cutting-edge technology with proven reliability. Technical Excellence: Constructed with 9/125 G.657.A1 single mode fiber, this cable delivers exceptional performance across telecommunications wavelengths. The advanced G.657.A1 specification provides improved bend resistance without sacrificing optical performance—critical for dense installations with space constraints. Insertion loss testing confirms ≤0.35dB at standard measurement conditions (typical 0.15dB performance), while return loss exceeds 20dB, ensuring minimal signal reflection and maximum transmission quality. Performance Specifications: Attenuation rates of 0.25 dB/km at 1310nm and 0.35 dB/km at 1550nm comply with stringent telecommunications standards. The 1.8mm outside diameter with OFNR riser-rated yellow jacketing provides both protection and identification while maintaining building safety codes. Applications & Benefits: Ideally suited for data center interconnections, telecommunications backbone installations, and high-speed LAN applications. The duplex configuration enables simultaneous bidirectional transmission, maximizing network efficiency. TAA compliance guarantees federal government procurement eligibility—essential for state, local, and federal infrastructure projects. Customization & Logistics: Available in custom lengths for specialized requirements. Ships from multiple US locations (Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, Beaufort SC) ensuring rapid delivery. Enjoy free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99. Materials comply with RoHS/ELV directives and EU 2002/95/EC standards, supporting environmental sustainability objectives. Warranty & Support: Backed by comprehensive 90-day limited warranty with reliable technical support. All cables undergo rigorous attenuation testing per ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 standards, guaranteeing consistent quality and performance reliability.
