The JBX43031 1m LC/APC to LC/APC Simplex Singlemode Fiber Patch Cable represents a professional-grade solution for critical fiber optic network installations. This cable combines precision engineering with exceptional performance specifications to deliver the reliability demanded in modern telecommunications infrastructure. **Superior Performance Specifications:** The cable features a 9/125 singlemode fiber core constructed from G.657.A1 glass fiber, engineered for long-distance signal transmission with minimal attenuation. With measured insertion loss of ≤0.35dB (typical 0.15dB) and return loss ≥20dB, this cable significantly exceeds industry baseline requirements. Attenuation specifications of 0.25 dB/km at 1310 nm and 0.35 dB/km at 1550 nm ensure optimal performance across the fiber optic spectrum. **Construction and Durability:** The cable features a robust 1.8mm outside diameter plastic jacket with OFNR (Optical Fiber Non-conductive Riser) rating, suitable for vertical routing in building risers and meeting strict fire safety codes. The simplex (single-strand) configuration provides cost-effective point-to-point connectivity for applications where unidirectional transmission is required. **Standards Compliance and Certification:** TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant and certified under RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC, this cable meets government procurement requirements and environmental standards. Performance testing follows ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 standards, ensuring consistency and reliability. **Versatile Applications:** Ideal for data centers, telecommunications facilities, network closets, and enterprise infrastructure upgrades. The yellow jacket provides visual identification in multi-cable environments, reducing installation errors. **Custom Availability:** Available in custom lengths to accommodate specific installation requirements. Free standard shipping on orders over $99, with convenient warehousing in Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, and Beaufort SC for rapid deployment. Includes 90-day limited warranty. **Maintenance Tip:** Clean connectors regularly with approved fiber optic cleaning solutions to maintain optimal performance and prevent insertion loss degradation.
