The JBX43013 12-meter LC/APC to LC/UPC simplex fiber patch cable represents a premium solution for enterprise-level fiber optic networking requirements. This professionally engineered cable combines superior performance specifications with regulatory compliance, making it an ideal choice for telecommunications infrastructure, data centers, and high-speed network installations. Key Technical Features: Constructed with 9/125 singlemode fiber core, this cable delivers excellent performance for long-distance signal transmission with minimal attenuation. The G.657.A1 glass fiber specification ensures compatibility with modern bend-insensitive requirements while maintaining traditional singlemode benefits. Tested insertion loss of ≤0.35dB (0.15dB typical) at both 1310nm and 1550nm wavelengths demonstrates exceptional signal integrity. Return loss exceeding 20dB confirms proper connector alignment and minimal signal reflection. Connector Configuration and Design: The LC/APC to LC/UPC connector pairing accommodates various network topologies and upgrade scenarios. The LC connector format provides compact, high-density mounting capabilities essential in crowded equipment racks. The APC (Angled Physical Contact) to UPC (Ultra Physical Contact) configuration allows for cross-protocol connectivity when bridging different network segments or equipment generations. Compliance and Safety: Full TAA compliance satisfies government procurement requirements for federal projects and contracts. RoHS/ELV directive compliance ensures environmental responsibility and compatibility with modern equipment standards. OFNR (Optical Fiber Nonconductive Riser) jacketing rating permits installation in vertical cable runs and between floors without additional conduit requirements, significantly reducing installation costs. Physical Specifications: The yellow outer jacket (1.8mm diameter) provides excellent visibility for identification and troubleshooting in complex cable management scenarios. Plastic accessory components ensure lightweight handling without compromising durability. The cable arrives in standard packaging suitable for inventory management and field deployment. Availability and Support: Offering custom length options beyond the standard 12-meter specification accommodates unique installation requirements. Multiple fulfillment locations across the continental United States (Danville, CA; Fort Worth, TX; Beaufort, SC) ensure rapid delivery. Free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99 provides cost-effective bulk purchasing for network upgrades. The included 90-day limited warranty demonstrates manufacturer confidence in product reliability. This cable represents an excellent investment for organizations requiring dependable, standards-compliant fiber connectivity solutions backed by responsive customer support and competitive pricing.
