The JBX43312 SC/APC to FC/UPC simplex fiber patch cable represents a premium solution for telecommunications professionals, data center operators, and network integrators requiring reliable single-channel fiber connectivity. This 10-meter cable combines professional-grade components with rigorous testing protocols to deliver consistent performance in mission-critical applications. Key Technical Specifications: This singlemode cable features a 9/125 micron core with G.657.A1 glass fiber composition, designed for long-distance signal transmission with minimal loss. The cable meets stringent ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 standards, with verified attenuation rates of 0.25 dB/km at 1310nm or 0.35 dB/km at 1550nm. The low insertion loss (≤0.35dB typical 0.15dB) and high return loss (≥20dB) ensure clean signal transmission across various wavelengths used in modern optical networks. Construction and Safety: The yellow OFNR (Optical Fiber Non-Conductive Riser) rated jacket provides superior flame resistance suitable for plenum and riser installations. The 1.8mm outer diameter enables dense cable routing without compromising signal quality or mechanical durability. Manufactured with RoHS/ELV compliance, this cable meets international environmental regulations while maintaining performance standards. Applications and Use Cases: Ideal for connecting SC/APC and FC/UPC equipped network devices, this cable excels in telecommunications rooms, data centers, network distribution points, and laboratory test environments. The straightforward polarity configuration simplifies installation and reduces connection errors. The bright yellow jacket aids in cable identification and management within complex infrastructure installations. TAA Compliance and Supply Chain Assurance: As a TAA-compliant product, this cable meets Buy American Act requirements, making it suitable for government contracts and federally funded projects. Manufactured in multiple locations (Taiwan, US, China), the cable ensures supply chain flexibility and availability. Customization and Value: While the standard 10-meter length covers most applications, custom lengths are available for specialized installations. The 90-day limited warranty protects your investment, and free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99 provides exceptional value. Ships from multiple US distribution centers for rapid delivery.
