The JBX43672 LC/UPC to FC/APC Simplex Singlemode Fiber Patch Cable is engineered for demanding telecommunications professionals who require reliable, high-performance fiber connectivity. This 10-meter cable combines superior optical performance with robust construction, making it an essential component in modern data center, enterprise network, and telecommunication infrastructure projects. Optical Performance & Specifications: Built with a 9/125 micron singlemode core and G.657.A1 glass fiber, this cable delivers consistent performance across standard optical windows. The insertion loss specification of ≤0.35dB typical at 1310nm (0.25dB/km) and 1550nm (0.35dB/km) ensures minimal signal degradation over the 10-meter span. Return loss of ≥20dB provides excellent signal reflection control, critical for maintaining signal quality in precision optical systems. Connector Technology: The LC/UPC to FC/APC configuration offers compatibility with diverse network equipment and patch panels. The LC connector's compact design enables higher density installations, while the FC/APC termination provides robust mechanical connectivity. The straight-through polarity ensures straightforward installation without optical path complexities. Construction & Durability: The riser-rated (OFNR) jacket meets building code requirements for plenum environments and offers enhanced flame resistance. At 1.8mm outside diameter, the cable occupies minimal space in cable trays and conduit systems. The yellow jacket color aids in rapid identification and troubleshooting in complex installations. Compliance & Standards: TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant and manufactured in Taiwan, USA, or China, this cable meets rigorous compliance standards including RoHS/ELV directives per EU 2002/95/EC. Attenuation testing follows ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 standards, ensuring consistent quality across production batches. Applications: Ideal for connecting network equipment, fiber patch panels, and optical terminals in data centers, telecommunications facilities, and enterprise networks. Perfect for upgrading existing infrastructure or deploying new singlemode fiber systems. Customization & Support: Available in custom lengths to match your specific deployment requirements. Backed by a 90-day limited warranty and supported by multiple domestic distribution centers in Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, and Beaufort SC for rapid delivery.
