The JBX43003 fiber optic patch cable represents a premium solution for connecting fiber optic network equipment in telecommunications, data centers, and enterprise environments. This 2-meter simplex cable bridges LC/APC connector on one end to LC/UPC on the other, making it suitable for scenarios requiring mixed connector types or signal direction optimization. Key Technical Specifications: This singlemode 9/125 cable utilizes G.657.A1 glass fiber, offering enhanced bend-radius tolerance without compromising signal integrity. The cable has been attenuation-tested per ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 standards, achieving 0.25 dB/km at 1310nm and 0.35 dB/km at 1550nm. The maximum insertion loss of 0.35dB (0.15dB typical) and return loss of ≥20dB ensure high-quality signal transmission across both wavelengths commonly used in fiber networks. Construction and Durability: The 1.8mm diameter cable features riser-rated OFNR jacketing, meeting fire safety requirements for in-building use. The yellow color facilitates easy identification in cable management systems. RoHS/ELV compliance ensures environmental responsibility, while TAA compliance supports government procurement standards. Applications and Use Cases: Ideal for connecting transceivers, switches, and patch panels in singlemode fiber networks. The LC connector family's compact design makes it perfect for high-density installations. Suitable for campus networks, metropolitan area networks (MAN), and long-distance telecommunications. Customization and Support: Available in custom lengths for specialized deployments. Backed by a 90-day limited warranty. Free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99, with fulfillment from multiple US locations (California, Texas, South Carolina) ensuring fast delivery. Whether upgrading existing infrastructure or deploying new fiber networks, this cable provides the reliability and performance standards demanded by professional installations.
