The JBX91182 SC/ST duplex singlemode fiber patch cable represents the gold standard for professional fiber optic connectivity. At 1.5 meters in length, this cable provides the perfect solution for connecting network equipment in telecommunications closets, data centers, and enterprise environments. **Technical Excellence:** Built with a 9/125 singlemode core and G.657.A1 glass fiber, this cable delivers superior performance characteristics. The specification of ≤0.35dB typical insertion loss at 0.15dB (meeting ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 standards) ensures minimal signal degradation over distance. With attenuation rated at 0.25 dB/km at 1310 nm or 0.35 dB/km at 1550 nm, this cable supports both traditional and long-wavelength applications. Return loss of ≥20dB provides excellent signal integrity, critical for high-speed data transmission. **Connector Specifications:** The SC/UPC to ST/UPC connector combination uses Type A to B crossover polarity—the most common configuration for duplex patch cords in production environments. Both connector types feature Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) polish, ensuring optimal performance and compatibility with standard network infrastructure. **Compliance & Safety:** This cable is TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant, making it eligible for federal procurement and government projects. Full RoHS compliance and adherence to EU directive 2002/95/EC guarantee environmental responsibility and regulatory compliance. The OFNR (Optical Fiber Non-Conductive Riser) rated jacketing provides fire-resistance suitable for indoor vertical cable runs. **Practical Applications:** Ideally suited for transmitting fiber signals in data centers, telecommunications facilities, campus networks, and enterprise IT infrastructure. The 1.5m length accommodates equipment spacing in standard 19-inch racks and network closets. Available in custom lengths for specialized requirements. **Quality Assurance:** Each cable includes a 90-day limited warranty. Ships from multiple U.S. locations (Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, Beaufort SC) with free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99. The compact 1.8mm outer diameter facilitates cable management and routing through conduit systems.
