The JBX43582 is a professional-grade fiber optic patch cable engineered for mission-critical telecommunications and data center applications. This 10-meter simplex cable connects ST/APC to FC/APC connectors, utilizing 9/125 singlemode fiber that adheres to the G.657.A1 standard for optimal performance across extended distances. Key Technical Features: This cable delivers exceptional optical performance with insertion loss measurements of ≤0.35dB (0.15dB typical), meeting stringent ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 standards. The APC (Angled Physical Contact) connectors on both ends minimize return loss at ≥20dB, significantly reducing signal reflection and ensuring data integrity. Attenuation specifications of 0.25dB/km at 1310nm and 0.35dB/km at 1550nm make this cable suitable for long-distance telecommunications applications. Construction and Durability: The cable features a compact 1.8mm outside diameter with OFNR (Optical Fiber, Non-conductive, Riser Rated) jacketing, meeting building code requirements for vertical riser installations. The bright yellow jacket provides instant visual identification in cable management systems. Constructed from premium materials with RoHS/ELV compliance, this cable meets international environmental standards. Applications and Use Cases: Ideal for telecommunications infrastructure, data center interconnects, fiber-to-the-desk implementations, and network backbone installations. The simplex configuration supports unidirectional signal transmission, perfect for applications requiring dedicated transmission or reception paths. Value and Compliance: TAA-compliant for government and procurement applications, this cable includes a 90-day limited warranty. Custom lengths are available to meet specific installation requirements. Ships from multiple U.S. locations (California, Texas, and South Carolina) with free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99, ensuring fast, cost-effective delivery.
