The JBX86182 SC/ST Duplex Singlemode Fiber Patch Cable represents a premium connectivity solution for professional networking and telecommunications applications. Manufactured to exacting standards, this 1.5-meter cable combines performance, compliance, and reliability in a compact, easy-to-deploy package. **Technical Excellence:** The cable features a 9/125 singlemode core with G.657.A1 glass fiber, optimized for long-distance signal transmission. Attenuation specs of 0.25 dB/km at 1310nm or 0.35 dB/km at 1550nm ensure minimal signal loss over extended runs. With typical insertion loss of just 0.15dB and return loss exceeding 20dB, this cable delivers carrier-grade performance meeting ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A standards. **Connector Configuration:** The duplex design features SC/UPC to ST/UPC connectors in Type A to B crossover polarity—the most common configuration for duplex patch cord applications. This ensures immediate compatibility with existing network infrastructure without requiring specialized converters. **Compliance & Durability:** TAA compliance makes this cable ideal for government contracts and federal projects. RoHS certification and ELV compliance satisfy environmental directives. The OFNR (Optical Fiber, Non-Conductive, Riser-rated) jacketing provides fire safety and indoor installation flexibility. The compact 1.8mm outer diameter accommodates tight conduit spaces while maintaining structural integrity. **Versatility:** Available in custom lengths beyond the standard 1.5m, this cable adapts to diverse network topologies. Applications include data centers, telecommunications facilities, campus networks, and enterprise installations requiring reliable singlemode connectivity. **Warranty & Support:** Backed by a 90-day limited warranty and shipped from multiple US locations (Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, Beaufort SC) for rapid delivery. Standard packaging accommodates bulk orders for infrastructure projects.
