The JBX43513 ST/APC to ST/APC simplex singlemode fiber patch cable represents professional-grade connectivity for demanding network environments. Measuring 2 meters in length with a precision-engineered 9/125 singlemode fiber core, this cable delivers exceptional performance for telecommunications, data center, and enterprise network applications. Key Technical Specifications: This cable features G.657.A1 glass fiber construction, meeting rigorous ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 attenuation standards. The insertion loss specification of ≤0.35dB (0.15dB typical) ensures minimal signal degradation, while the return loss of ≥20dB prevents unwanted signal reflections. Operating at both 1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelengths with attenuation rates of 0.25 dB/km and 0.35 dB/km respectively, this cable supports diverse fiber optic network configurations. Design and Compliance: The yellow riser-rated (OFNR) polyvinyl chloride jacket provides superior durability and fire safety in building installations. With an outer diameter of 1.8mm, the cable maintains a compact footprint for dense networking environments. This product is TAA compliant and RoHS/ELV directive compliant (EU 2002/95/EC), meeting government procurement standards and environmental regulations. Applications and Use Cases: Ideal for telecommunications networks, data center interconnections, campus networking, and fiber-to-the-premise installations. The simplex configuration supports unidirectional signal transmission, making it suitable for dedicated upload or download applications. The straight-through polarity ensures straightforward installation without complex termination procedures. Customization and Availability: Custom lengths are available upon request to accommodate specific installation requirements.
