The JBX43669 7-meter LC/UPC to FC/APC simplex singlemode fiber patch cable represents professional-grade connectivity for critical network infrastructure. Designed to meet the stringent requirements of modern telecommunications, data centers, and enterprise networks, this cable combines reliability with superior optical performance. Technical Specifications: This cable features a 9/125 micrometer singlemode fiber core with G.657.A1 glass fiber composition, ensuring compatibility with standard singlemode infrastructure while providing excellent bending characteristics. The simplex design—featuring a single fiber strand—makes it ideal for applications requiring dedicated directional transmission paths. Performance Metrics: With insertion loss of just 0.15dB typical (≤0.35dB maximum) and return loss exceeding 20dB, this cable maintains signal integrity across extended distances. Attenuation specifications of 0.25 dB/km at 1310nm and 0.35 dB/km at 1550nm demonstrate excellent performance across standard telecom wavelengths. All performance metrics are validated through rigorous testing per ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A standards. Connector Configuration: The LC/UPC to FC/APC connector pairing enables seamless integration between different network equipment generations and manufacturers. LC connectors provide compact, high-density interface capabilities, while FC/APC connectors offer enhanced return loss characteristics—a combination increasingly valued in modern network architectures. Compliance & Quality: This cable meets TAA compliance requirements, making it eligible for government and federal procurement contracts. RoHS and ELV directive compliance ensures environmental responsibility throughout the product lifecycle. The OFNR riser rating permits installation in building plenum and riser spaces per National Electrical Code requirements. Customization & Support: Available in custom lengths beyond the standard 7-meter configuration, allowing optimization for specific installation requirements. Ships with a 90-day limited warranty and benefits from multiple domestic fulfillment centers ensuring rapid delivery. Applications: • Data center interconnection • Telecommunications backbone networks • Long-haul signal transmission • Mixed-interface network upgrades • High-reliability network infrastructure This professional-grade patch cable provides the performance, compliance, and reliability demanded by enterprise network deployments.
