The JBX43469 40m FC/APC Singlemode Fiber Patch Cable represents the pinnacle of fiber optic connectivity for mission-critical applications. Engineered to ANSI/TIA/EIA standards, this simplex cable delivers exceptional performance characteristics that exceed industry expectations for signal transmission reliability. Technical Excellence: The cable features a precision 9/125 singlemode core compatible with G.657.A1 fiber specifications, ensuring compatibility with modern telecommunications infrastructure. Its extremely low attenuation rates (0.25 dB/km at 1310nm, 0.35 dB/km at 1550nm) minimize signal degradation over extended runs, critical for long-distance telecommunications and data center interconnects. Optimal Connector Technology: The FC/APC (Angled Physical Contact) connectors provide superior performance over standard FC/PC designs. The angled polish reduces back-reflection to 20dB or better, substantially minimizing signal noise and interference. This makes the cable ideal for analog video transmission, RF-over-fiber applications, and sensitive CATV systems. Versatile Applications: Suitable for telecommunications networks, DWDM systems, fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) installations, data center backhaul connections, and laboratory testing environments. The 40-meter length accommodates medium-distance runs without excessive signal loss. Compliance & Safety: TAA compliant for government procurement, RoHS/ELV certified for environmental responsibility, and OFNR-rated for safe installation in building plenums. The yellow jacket provides excellent visibility during installation and maintenance. Flexibility & Support: Available in custom lengths to match specific installation requirements. Ships from three US locations (Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, Beaufort SC) with free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99. The 90-day limited warranty provides peace of mind for your investment. Installation Considerations: The 1.8mm diameter allows smooth routing through existing cable pathways. Store in cool, dry conditions and avoid sharp bends exceeding the cable's minimum bend radius specifications. Regular visual inspection maintains optimal performance.
