The JBX43173 SC/APC to SC/APC Simplex Singlemode Fiber Patch Cable represents a premium solution for professionals requiring dependable, high-performance fiber optic connectivity. With a generous 60-meter length, this cable accommodates extended run requirements common in modern network installations, from data center interconnects to telecommunications hub connections. **Technical Excellence:** Built with a 9/125 micron singlemode core and G.657.A1 specification glass fiber, this cable ensures minimal signal degradation over distance. The tested attenuation rates of 0.25 dB/km at 1310 nm and 0.35 dB/km at 1550 nm fall well within industry standards, while the ≤0.35dB insertion loss and ≥20dB return loss guarantee optimal signal quality for both legacy and modern fiber networks. **Compliance & Safety:** The yellow OFNR (Optical Fiber Non-conductive Riser) rated jacket meets building code requirements for riser installations, providing both safety and regulatory compliance. Full RoHS/ELV compliance and TAA certification make this cable suitable for government contracts and environmentally-conscious deployments. **Design Features:** The simplex configuration transmits signals in one direction, ideal for applications where separate transmit and receive paths are managed independently. The compact 1.8mm outside diameter allows for flexible routing through cable trays and conduit systems. SC/APC connectors provide superior return loss characteristics compared to standard SC/UPC connectors, reducing back-reflections and signal distortion. **Versatile Applications:** Perfect for telecommunications facilities, fiber-to-the-desk installations, video distribution networks, and enterprise backbone connections. Custom lengths are available for specific project requirements. **Quality Assurance:** Manufactured to stringent ANSI/TIA/EIA standards with attenuation testing verification. Backed by a 90-day limited warranty and available with free standard shipping on qualifying orders. Ships from multiple U.S. locations for faster delivery.
