The JBX43091 LC/APC to SC/APC simplex fiber patch cable is an essential component for modern optical networking infrastructure. Engineered to the highest specifications, this 1-meter cable combines reliability with superior performance characteristics, making it suitable for telecommunications, data centers, and enterprise network environments. **Technical Excellence:** This singlemode fiber cable features a 9/125 micron core utilizing G.657.A1 grade glass fiber, providing optimized performance for both 1310nm and 1550nm wavelengths. The cable achieves an insertion loss of just ≤0.35dB (0.15dB typical), with high return loss of ≥20dB, ensuring minimal signal degradation across your network. Every cable is attenuation tested in accordance with ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 standards, guaranteeing consistent quality. **Build Quality and Safety:** The bright yellow OFNR (Optical Fiber Non-conductive Riser Rated) jacket provides dual benefits—enhanced visibility for proper cable management and superior fire safety compliance. The 1.8mm outside diameter fits standard fiber enclosures, while the straight-through polarity configuration ensures straightforward installation and reduced error potential. **Compliance and Certification:** As a TAA-compliant product, this cable meets government procurement standards. It carries full RoHS/ELV compliance under EU Directive 2002/95/EC, making it suitable for environmentally conscious organizations. The 90-day limited warranty provides peace of mind on your investment. **Flexibility and Support:** While this cable ships as a standard 1-meter length, custom lengths are available to suit your specific network architecture. Multiple U.S. distribution centers ensure rapid delivery, with free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99. **Applications:** Ideal for telecommunications networks, data center interconnects, fiber-to-the-premises installations, and enterprise backbone connections. The LC/APC and SC/APC connector combination provides industry-standard compatibility across most modern optical equipment.
