The JBX43761 1-meter LC/UPC to ST/APC simplex singlemode fiber patch cable represents professional-grade connectivity for mission-critical fiber optic networks. Engineered with precision and manufactured to exacting standards, this cable delivers the performance, reliability, and compliance required by enterprise datacenters, telecommunications facilities, and network service providers. Technical Specifications: This single-strand (simplex) fiber optic cable features a 9/125 micrometers singlemode core, the industry standard for long-distance, high-bandwidth signal transmission. The G.657.A1 glass fiber specification ensures compatibility with modern bend-optimized fiber systems while maintaining superior optical performance. With insertion loss measuring ≤0.35dB (0.15dB typical) and return loss ≥20dB, this cable meets stringent performance requirements for both 1310nm and 1550nm wavelengths. Connector Configuration: The LC/UPC (Lucent Connector/Ultra Physical Contact) to ST/APC (Straight Tip/Angled Physical Contact) configuration provides versatile connectivity options. The UPC connector offers superior return loss characteristics, while the APC angled contact design reduces back-reflection, making this cable ideal for analog video applications and systems sensitive to reflection artifacts. Physical Characteristics: The yellow OFNR (Optical Fiber Non-conductive Riser-Rated) jacket provides flame resistance and low-smoke emissions suitable for building installations. The 1.8mm outer diameter accommodates standard cable trays and conduit systems. At 1 meter length, this patch cable bridges network equipment with minimal signal degradation. Compliance & Standards: Fully TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant for U.S. government projects and procurement. RoHS and ELV directive compliant, meeting European environmental standards. Performance verified according to ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A standards for optical fiber attenuation testing. Applications: Ideal for connecting fiber termination points in datacenters, carrier networks, campus networks, and telecommunications infrastructure. Perfect for videoconferencing systems, high-speed data transmission, and environments requiring low-loss, high-reliability fiber connectivity. Customization Available: Beyond the standard 1-meter length, custom lengths are available to meet specific installation requirements. Ships from multiple U.S. locations for expedited delivery. Backed by a comprehensive 90-day limited warranty.
