The JBX93155 3-meter SC/SC duplex singlemode fiber patch cable represents a premium solution for professional-grade fiber optic networking applications. Engineered to deliver exceptional performance in telecommunications infrastructure, data center environments, and long-distance signal transmission scenarios. Technical Specifications: This cable features a robust 9/125 singlemode fiber core with G.657.A1 glass fiber composition, specifically designed for single-mode applications requiring minimal signal loss and maximum transmission distances. The cable achieves exceptional performance metrics: insertion loss of ≤0.35dB at standard wavelengths (0.25 dB/km at 1310nm, 0.35 dB/km at 1550nm) with typical insertion loss of just 0.15dB, and return loss exceeding 20dB—exceeding industry standards for signal integrity. Connector Configuration: Equipped with SC/UPC to SC/UPC connectors configured in Type A to B crossover polarity (the industry standard for duplex patch cords), this cable provides straightforward plug-and-play installation in most network environments. The duplex configuration accommodates bidirectional transmission across a single cable. Build Quality and Compliance: The cable features an OFNR-rated orange jacket (1.8mm outside diameter) for both optimal visibility in cable management and fire safety compliance in commercial installations. It meets RoHS/ELV environmental directives and is TAA-compliant, making it suitable for government and institutional procurement requirements. Manufactured with quality controls meeting ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 standards. Applications: Ideal for telecommunications providers, Internet Service Providers (ISPs), enterprise data centers, and organizations requiring reliable single-mode fiber connectivity for long-distance, high-bandwidth applications. The cable's performance characteristics make it particularly suitable for backbone networks, carrier-grade installations, and any environment where signal fidelity is critical. Convenience and Support: Custom lengths are available for applications requiring non-standard configurations. The cable qualifies for free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99 and includes a 90-day limited warranty. Sourced from multiple US distribution centers (Danville, CA; Fort Worth, TX; Beaufort, SC) for rapid availability.
