The JBX86200 SC/ST singlemode fiber patch cable represents premium connectivity for mission-critical network infrastructure. At 45 meters, this duplex configuration provides the extended reach necessary for backbone connections, equipment room runs, and multi-floor installations without requiring additional amplification. **Technical Excellence** This cable utilizes 9/125 singlemode fiber with G.657.A1 specification, delivering industry-leading performance characteristics. With measured insertion loss of only ≤0.35dB (typically 0.15dB) and return loss exceeding 20dB, signal integrity is maintained across long distances. Attenuation rates of 0.25 dB/km at 1310nm or 0.35 dB/km at 1550nm ensure optimal performance across telecom wavelengths. **Professional Grade Construction** The SC/UPC to ST/UPC connector configuration (Type A to B crossover) provides reliable mating with standard network equipment. OFNR (Riser) rated jacketing allows installation in plenum and riser spaces. The 1.8mm outside diameter minimizes space requirements in cable trays and conduits. Robust plastic accessories protect connectors from dust and contamination. **Compliance & Reliability** TAA compliance qualifies this cable for government procurement, while RoHS/ELV directives ensure environmental standards. Manufactured across multiple locations (Taiwan, US, China) for supply reliability. Includes 90-day limited warranty and free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99. **Ideal Applications** - Data center interconnects - Campus network backbone - Telecommunications infrastructure - High-speed LAN installations - Medical and laboratory networks - Financial institution systems **Custom Solutions Available** While this 45m configuration addresses most enterprise needs, custom lengths are available for specialized installations. Contact sales for bulk quantities or unique specifications. **Maintenance & Best Practices** Protect connectors with dust caps when not in use. Avoid sharp bends exceeding the minimum bend radius specifications. Store in climate-controlled environments away from UV exposure. Regular inspection ensures optimal long-term performance.
