SPEC SHEET

specifications

technical information

applications

ST* fiber optic connectors shall be compliant

with TIA FOCIS-2. ST* connectors shall

contain a factory terminated pre-polished

multimode fiber, requiring no field polishing

and no adhesive. The fiber shall terminate in a

2.5mm ferrule and have a typical insertion

loss of 0.3dB (62.5/125µm) or 0.35dB

(50/125µm) per connector.

ST*

®

The ST*

improves an industry standard design.

Elimination of end face polishing and

adhesive provides for easier, faster

installation, especially in remote areas and

confined spaces. This reduces installation

time over standard field polish ST* connectors

by 50%. ST* Fiber Optic Connectors are

widely used in fiber optic backbone and

horizontal applications for high-speed data

transmissions.
