Hubbell FHPSTS1SMZ Fiber Optic Pigtail

Overview

The Hubbell FHPSTS1SMZ is a 1-meter, single-mode OS2 fiber optic pigtail terminated with an ST connector. It features a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket, making it suitable for installations where fire safety and reduced smoke emission are critical. This pigtail is designed for terminating fiber optic cables in network closets, data centers, or surveillance head-end locations, ensuring a clean and reliable connection point for active equipment.

Compatibility

This pigtail is compatible with standard ST fiber optic connectors found on transceivers, patch panels, and network devices. The OS2 single-mode fiber specification ensures compatibility with high-bandwidth, long-distance transmission systems common in enterprise networking and modern IP surveillance backbones. It is suitable for use with equipment requiring ST connectivity, regardless of the manufacturer, provided the fiber type (OS2) and connector (ST) match.

Installation Notes

Termination of the non-connectorized end of the pigtail requires appropriate fiber optic termination tools and techniques, such as fusion splicing or mechanical splicing. The LSZH jacket offers improved fire safety but may have slightly different handling characteristics than standard PVC jackets. Ensure the installation environment meets the requirements for fiber optic splicing or termination to maintain signal integrity.
