The JBX43178 85-meter SC/APC to SC/APC simplex singlemode fiber patch cable represents enterprise-grade optical connectivity solution designed for mission-critical network infrastructure. This precisely engineered cable combines superior performance specifications with regulatory compliance and installation flexibility. **Technical Excellence**: Built with 9/125 singlemode core construction, this cable utilizes G.657.A1 grade glass fiber to deliver consistent, low-loss signal transmission. The SC/APC straight-through polarity configuration ensures straight-forward installation without requiring specialized adapters. Insertion loss of ≤0.35dB (typically 0.15dB) and return loss ≥20dB exceed industry standards, making it ideal for bandwidth-intensive applications. **Compliance & Quality**: TAA compliance and RoHS/ELV directive adherence ensure procurement flexibility for government and regulated environments. OFNR riser-rated jacketing meets stringent fire safety standards, with testing performed in accordance with ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 specifications. **Performance Specifications**: Attenuation testing confirms 0.25dB/km at 1310nm and 0.35dB/km at 1550nm wavelengths, supporting both traditional and modern fiber optic applications. The 1.8mm outer diameter jacket provides optimal balance between protection and cable management. **Versatile Applications**: Ideal for data center interconnects, long-distance telecommunications, FTTH deployments, and enterprise network backbones. The 85-meter length accommodates medium to long-distance runs while maintaining signal integrity. **Custom Solutions Available**: Beyond standard 85m configuration, custom lengths are available to match specific installation requirements. Free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99 and rapid fulfillment from multiple U.S. distribution centers (Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, Beaufort SC) ensure quick deployment. **Installation & Maintenance**: Professional SC/APC connectors arrive pre-terminated and tested. Maintain performance by protecting connectors from dust and physical damage. Store in cool, dry conditions away from direct sunlight. Backed by 90-day limited warranty against manufacturing defects.
