The JBX43005 3-meter LC/APC to LC/UPC simplex fiber patch cable represents the gold standard for professional-grade optical connectivity. Engineered for telecommunications providers, data center operators, and network infrastructure specialists, this cable delivers the performance and reliability demanded by mission-critical applications. Technical Specifications: This singlemode fiber cable features a 9/125 micron core/cladding construction optimized for long-distance, high-bandwidth transmission. The LC/APC-to-LC/UPC configuration combines angled-physical-contact (APC) and ultra-polished-contact (UPC) connectors, providing flexibility for mixed-connector environments while maintaining signal integrity. With insertion loss specifications of ≤0.35dB at both 1310nm and 1550nm wavelengths, and return loss ≥20dB, this cable exceeds industry standards for low-loss performance. Quality & Compliance: Manufactured to G.657.A1 specifications with an 1.8mm diameter jacket, the cable incorporates OFNR (Optical Fiber Non-conductive Riser) rated jacketing suitable for plenum and riser applications. Full RoHS/ELV compliance and TAA certification ensure regulatory adherence for government and enterprise procurement requirements. The cable has been tested in accordance with ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 standards. Applications: Ideal for connecting network equipment, telecommunications panels, and optical distribution systems. The 3-meter length accommodates standard patch panel spacing in data centers and telecommunications rooms. The distinctive yellow jacket aids in rapid identification and reduces installation errors. Support & Availability: Ships from multiple U.S. locations (Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, Beaufort SC) with free standard shipping on orders over $99. Available in custom lengths for specialized installations. Backed by a 90-day limited warranty. RoHS and EU directive 2002/95/EC compliant for international deployment.
