The JBX43460 FC/APC fiber patch cable represents a professional-grade solution for single-mode optical fiber connectivity in demanding networking environments. This 8-meter cable delivers reliable signal transmission with minimal loss, making it ideal for telecommunications infrastructure, data center backbone connections, and high-speed WAN links. **Technical Specifications:** This simplex patch cable features a 9/125 micrometer core construction optimized for single-mode transmission. The FC/APC (Angled Physical Contact) connectors on both ends provide superior return loss performance (≥20dB) compared to standard FC/UPC connectors, reducing reflection-induced signal degradation. With attenuation of 0.25dB/km at 1310nm and 0.35dB/km at 1550nm, the cable exceeds ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 testing standards. **Key Features:** The distinctive yellow jacket aids in cable identification and organization within large network installations. OFNR (Optical Fiber Non-Conductive Riser) rating ensures compliance with fire safety codes for installation in non-plenum vertical runs. The 1.8mm outside diameter provides flexibility while maintaining durability, with G.657.A1 glass fiber supporting tight bend radius applications. **Compliance & Standards:** TAA compliant certification makes this cable eligible for U.S. government and public sector contracts. RoHS and ELV directive compliance ensures environmental responsibility and reduced hazardous substances. The cable meets rigorous telecommunications industry standards for optical signal transmission. **Applications:** Ideal for connecting optical networking equipment, telecommunications systems, CWDM/DWDM installations, and fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) infrastructure. The 8-meter length accommodates mid-range connections between equipment racks and distribution points. Custom lengths available for specific installation requirements. **Quality Assurance:** Backed by a 90-day limited warranty. Available through multiple distribution centers (Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, Beaufort SC) for rapid domestic shipping. Free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99 provides excellent value for bulk purchases.
