The JBX43118 LC/APC to SC/APC Simplex Singlemode Fiber Patch Cable represents a premium solution for telecommunications professionals and network infrastructure specialists. With an 85-meter length, this cable is engineered to bridge significant distances while maintaining signal integrity essential for modern data center and enterprise network deployments. **Technical Excellence** This singlemode patch cable features a precision 9/125 micrometer core with G.657.A1 grade glass fiber, optimized for long-distance signal transmission. The cable achieves exceptional attenuation performance: 0.25 dB/km at 1310nm and 0.35 dB/km at 1550nm, with low insertion loss of ≤0.35dB (typical 0.15dB) and return loss exceeding 20dB. These specifications ensure minimal signal degradation over extended cable runs, critical for maintaining network performance. **Connector Technology** Both LC/APC and SC/APC connectors feature angled physical contact (APC) polishing, reducing back-reflection and improving signal quality compared to UPC connections. This makes the cable ideal for CWDM, DWDM, and other wavelength-division multiplexing applications where signal purity is paramount. **Quality & Compliance** TAA compliant certification ensures government procurement eligibility. RoHS/ELV directives compliance guarantees environmental responsibility. The cable undergoes attenuation testing per ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A standards, ensuring consistent quality across production batches. OFNR riser rating allows safe installation in building plenum spaces. **Practical Features** The distinctive yellow PVC jacket provides superior identification in cable-dense environments, reducing installation errors. The robust 1.8mm outer diameter withstands physical stress while fitting standard conduit specifications. Custom lengths are available for specialized installation requirements. **Applications** Ideal for data centers, telecommunications closets, enterprise networks, fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) installations, and any application requiring reliable singlemode fiber connectivity. Suitable for transmitting fiber signals in both short-term testing and permanent infrastructure deployments. **Service & Support** Ships from strategically located US warehouses (Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, Beaufort SC) ensuring rapid delivery. Free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99. 90-day limited warranty provides peace of mind for critical network installations.
