HSC Series Simplex Plug – 2.0mm Cable, 9.5µm Core
The HSC-PH2-B2(60): The HSC-PH2-(60): The Hirose HSC-PH2-(60) is a simplex fiber optic plug from the HSC series, designed for free-hanging (in-line) termination. It accepts cable with a 2.0mm outer diameter and terminates fiber with a 9.5µm/50µm core and 125µm cladding — matching the standard singlemode or 50µm multimode ferrule interface. The purple boot colour and Advanced PC Polished finish on the ferrule indicate a physical-contact polish grade suited for low back-reflection in telecom and datacom links. The strain relief feature on the boot protects the fiber at the cable exit point, reducing microbend loss in installed cables.

Mating and Termination – HSC Ferrules and Receptacles
The simplex configuration means one fiber per plug — no duplex clip or multi-fiber alignment. The free-hanging mount suits patch panel jumpers and in-line splice enclosures where a bulkhead feed-through is not required. The 2.0mm cable diameter is a tight fit for standard 900µm tight-buffer or 1.6mm jacketed fiber — verify the cable jacket OD before terminating. The Advanced PC Polished ferrule end-face is factory-finished; field polishing is not intended for this pre-polished connector style.
