The JBX43818 85-meter SC/APC to E2000/APC simplex fiber patch cable represents enterprise-grade connectivity for single-mode optical networks. This precision instrument cable is engineered to deliver reliable, long-distance fiber signal transmission with minimal loss and superior return loss characteristics. **Technical Excellence:** Constructed with 9/125 singlemode fiber conforming to G.657.A1 specifications, this cable provides exceptional performance at both 1310nm and 1550nm wavelengths. Attenuation measurements of 0.25 dB/km at 1310nm and 0.35 dB/km at 1550nm ensure signal integrity over extended runs. The 1.8mm outside diameter offers flexibility for routing through conduit and tight spaces while maintaining structural integrity. **Connector Specifications:** The SC/APC to E2000/APC configuration provides straight-through polarity with APC angled connectors, delivering ≥20dB return loss performance. This combination is ideal for applications requiring secure, low-reflection connections in telecommunications, data centers, and fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) installations. **Quality & Compliance:** TAA compliant construction qualifies this cable for federal government procurement. RoHS/ELV compliance ensures environmental responsibility. OFNR-rated yellow jacket provides riser safety ratings suitable for in-building installations. Attenuation testing follows ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 standards, guaranteeing measurement accuracy. **Practical Advantages:** - 85-meter ready-made length eliminates costly splicing - Yellow jacket provides easy identification in crowded environments - Custom lengths available for specialized requirements - Multiple US shipping locations enable rapid deployment - 90-day limited warranty protects your investment - Free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99 **Applications:** Ideal for data center interconnections, carrier backbone networks, campus fiber runs, and long-distance LAN implementations where singlemode fiber is required for maximum distance and bandwidth capability.
