The JBX43074 represents a premium solution for fiber optic network infrastructure. This 15-meter simplex patch cable is specifically designed to connect LC/APC (Lucent Connector with Angled Physical Contact) connectors to SC/UPC (Standard Connector with Ultra-Physical Contact) connectors, enabling seamless integration across diverse network architectures. **Superior Fiber Technology** Constructed with 9/125 singlemode fiber and G.657.A1 glass fiber, this cable delivers outstanding signal integrity over extended distances. The singlemode construction ensures single-wavelength transmission, reducing modal dispersion and enabling high-bandwidth applications at both 1310nm and 1550nm wavelengths. **Exceptional Performance Specifications** With insertion loss rated at ≤0.35dB (typical 0.15dB) and return loss ≥20dB, this cable minimizes signal degradation. Attenuation is measured at 1310nm: 0.25dB/km and 1550nm: 0.35dB/km, meeting stringent telecommunications standards. All performance metrics are verified through ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A standards testing. **Professional-Grade Construction** The cable features riser-rated (OFNR) jacketing with a 1.8mm outer diameter, providing durability and safe installation in building vertical runs. The bright yellow jacket enables quick identification and organization in complex cable management scenarios. Straight-through polarity ensures proper signal flow without additional conversion requirements. **Compliance and Certification** TAA compliant for government procurement, this cable meets Buy American Act requirements. Full RoHS and ELV compliance demonstrates commitment to environmental standards (EU Directive 2002/95/EC). The 90-day limited warranty provides added peace of mind. **Flexible Configuration Options** While this product ships in 15-meter lengths, custom lengths are available to accommodate specific installation requirements. Orders exceeding $99 qualify for free standard shipping from our distribution centers in California, Texas, or South Carolina. **Ideal Applications** Perfect for data centers, telecommunications facilities, enterprise networks, campus connectivity, and any environment requiring reliable singlemode fiber connections. The LC/APC to SC/UPC configuration bridges equipment using different connector standards while maintaining optimal signal quality.
