The JBX43088 85-meter LC/APC to SC/UPC simplex singlemode fiber patch cable represents a professional-grade solution for organizations requiring reliable, long-distance fiber optic connectivity. This specialized cable bridges LC/APC and SC/UPC connector types, making it ideal for heterogeneous network environments and legacy system integration. **Technical Specifications:** Constructed with a 9/125 singlemode fiber core and G.657.A1 bend-optimized glass, this cable minimizes signal loss during transmission. The measured insertion loss of ≤0.35dB (typical 0.15dB) ensures minimal signal degradation, while return loss ≥20dB prevents reflective interference. Attenuation rates of 0.25 dB/km at 1310nm and 0.35 dB/km at 1550nm comply with industry standards for both traditional and modern wavelength divisions. **Design Features:** The 1.8mm outside diameter and riser-rated OFNR jacketing provide durability for in-building installations while maintaining flexibility for routing through cable trays and conduits. The distinctive yellow jacket enables quick identification in dense network infrastructures, reducing troubleshooting time and installation errors. Simplex configuration delivers dedicated unidirectional transmission, ideal for long-haul applications. **Compliance & Quality:** Fully TAA compliant for government and federal procurement requirements. RoHS and ELV compliant manufacturing ensures environmental responsibility. All cables are attenuation tested to ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 standards, guaranteeing consistent performance. Custom lengths are available for specific installation requirements. **Applications:** - Data center interconnects and backbone networks - Telecommunications carrier networks - Long-distance campus fiber routes - Signal transmission requiring minimal loss - Legacy system integration with mixed connector types **Shipping & Support:** Manufactured in Taiwan, the United States, and China, this cable ships from strategically located U.S. warehouses in California, Texas, and South Carolina. Enjoy free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99. Every cable includes a 90-day limited warranty covering manufacturing defects. Perfect for IT professionals, network engineers, and telecommunications specialists who demand reliability without compromise.
