It converts from an SC receptacle on one side to an SC receptacle on the other, making it a straight-through adapter for duplex fiber links. The blue housing signals it as a standard single-mode or multimode coupler, and the zirconia ferrule sleeves provide the precision alignment needed for low-loss optical junctions. Mounting is handled by a panel flange with snap-in retention — the coupler pushes into a rectangular cutout and locks without hardware, which speeds field installation in patch panels, wall boxes, or equipment chassis. A dust cap is included on the coupler, protecting the ferrule sleeves from contamination when no patch cord is plugged in. Operating temperature spans -25°C to 70°C, covering indoor telecom, data center, and industrial cabinet environments. ## Last Buy Status — Plan Your Final Order The HSCF-2A-D(P)(06) is listed as Last Buy by Hirose. This means the manufacturer has announced end-of-life and is accepting final orders before production ceases. Once the Last Buy window closes, the part will no longer be available from the factory, and remaining stock will move to the surplus and broker channel. This coupler accepts standard SC connectors on both ends — the duplex SC format means two fibers are aligned side by side in a single housing. It is compatible with SC simplex connectors as well, though a simplex plug will only occupy one of the two ports. The zirconia split sleeves grip the ferrule OD and center the fiber cores; the alignment precision is built into the sleeve geometry, not the housing. Panel installation is straightforward: cut a rectangular opening per the Hirose drawing, snap the coupler in from the front, and the flange seats flush against the panel face. No screws or clips are needed. The dust cap stays on until a patch cord is inserted, keeping the ferrule alignment bores clean.","metaTitle":"Hirose HSCF-2A-D(P)(06) Duplex SC Coupler, Last Buy","metaDescription":"Hirose HSCF-2A-D(P)(06) duplex SC-to-SC coupler, blue, panel mount with flange.
