The JBX43170 SC/APC to SC/APC Simplex Singlemode Fiber Patch Cable represents a professional-grade solution for organizations requiring dependable, high-performance fiber optic connectivity. With its 45-meter length and precision-engineered specifications, this cable is designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern telecommunications infrastructure, data centers, and enterprise networks. **Technical Excellence** Constructed with a 9/125 micron singlemode core and G.657.A1 glass fiber, this patch cable delivers superior optical performance. The SC/APC (Angled Physical Contact) connectors provide excellent signal quality with return loss measurements of ≥20dB, minimizing back-reflections and signal interference. Insertion loss specifications of ≤0.35dB (0.15dB typical) ensure minimal signal attenuation, critical for long-distance transmissions and sensitive applications. Attenuation testing confirms reliable performance at both 1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelengths, making it suitable for diverse fiber optic systems. **Durability and Safety** The cable features OFNR (Optical Fiber, Non-Conductive, Riser-Rated) jacketing, making it safe for installation in vertical cable runs within buildings and conduits. The robust 1.8mm outside diameter provides excellent durability while maintaining flexibility for routing through tight spaces. RoHS and ELV compliance ensures the product meets stringent environmental and safety standards required by government agencies and environmentally conscious organizations. **Identification and Management** The distinctive yellow jacket simplifies cable identification and organization within complex network installations, reducing troubleshooting time and improving overall system maintainability. This color coding is particularly valuable in data centers and telecommunications facilities managing hundreds of connections. **Compliance and Availability** TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance makes this cable eligible for government and federal purchasing programs. The product ships with a 90-day limited warranty and is available with custom lengths to meet specific installation requirements. With multiple distribution centers across the United States, this cable qualifies for free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99. **Ideal Applications** Perfect for telecommunications networks, enterprise data centers, campus area networks (CANs), metropolitan area networks (MANs), service provider backbone networks, and any application requiring reliable, long-distance singlemode fiber connectivity. The SC/APC connector standard is widely recognized and supported across telecommunications equipment globally.
