The JBX68523 12-meter LC/SC OM4 Duplex Fiber Patch Cable represents the pinnacle of fiber optic connectivity for modern enterprise networks. Engineered with OM4 50/125 multimode fiber, this cable delivers exceptional performance for 100GB network applications while maintaining backward compatibility with legacy 10GB and 1GB installations. **Key Performance Features:** This premium patch cable features bend-insensitive fiber technology, allowing for flexible routing without compromising signal integrity. With insertion loss of ≤0.35dB (0.15dB typical) and impressive return loss of ≥60dB, the cable ensures minimal attenuation across transmission windows—3.5 dB/km at 850nm and 1.0 dB/km at 1300nm. The 1.8mm outer diameter provides optimal balance between flexibility and durability. **Standards Compliance & Safety:** Manufactured to rigorous industry standards including ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001, this cable is fully TAA compliant for federal procurement and RoHS/ELV certified for environmental responsibility. The plenum-rated (OFNP) jacketing makes it suitable for installation in HVAC return air plenums, meeting critical fire safety requirements for commercial buildings. **Flexible Connectivity:** The LC/UPC to SC/UPC connectors with Type A to B crossover polarity configuration provide reliable duplex communication. This standard polarity arrangement ensures compatibility with most network equipment without requiring specialty cables or adapters. **Customization & Availability:** While this product is offered in 12-meter length, custom lengths are available to suit specific installation requirements. Ships from multiple US locations (Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, and Beaufort SC) with free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99. **Ideal Applications:** Perfect for data center interconnects, campus backbone networks, high-speed server connections, and any mission-critical environment requiring reliable, high-performance fiber connectivity. The combination of OM4 specifications and bend-insensitive fiber makes it particularly valuable in real-world installations where cable routing flexibility is essential.
