Hubbell DFPCLCSTS2SM Fiber Patch Cord

Overview

The Hubbell DFPCLCSTS2SM is a 2-meter duplex fiber optic patch cable designed for reliable data transmission in plenum-rated environments. This cable features LC connectors on one end and ST connectors on the other, making it suitable for connecting network equipment where different connector types are present. Its OS2 singlemode fiber construction ensures high bandwidth and low signal loss over extended distances, critical for backbone connections or high-speed data links in commercial installations.

Compatibility

This patch cord is designed for use with any network devices, transceivers, or patch panels that utilize duplex LC and ST singlemode connectors. It is suitable for integration into structured cabling systems within commercial buildings, data centers, and enterprise networks where plenum-rated cable is required for fire safety compliance. Specific compatibility extends to network switches, media converters, and fiber optic termination points that accept these connector types.

Installation Notes

The cable jacket is rated for plenum spaces, meaning it meets stringent fire and smoke-test requirements for installation within air-handling spaces. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to prevent signal degradation. The duplex configuration requires two fiber strands for full-duplex communication. Avoid sharp bends (minimum bend radius is typically 20mm for OS2 fiber) to maintain signal integrity.
