Last Buy — Plan Your Final Order
The HSC-PH2-E1(64): The HSC-PH2-(64): The HSC-PH2-(64) is officially on Last Buy status. This means the manufacturer has announced end-of-production, and the window to place final orders is closing. For a build that depends on this simplex plug, the procurement action is to secure the BOM quantity now — either through a last-time buy or by qualifying a replacement.
The HSC-PH2-(64) is a simplex fiber optic plug from the Hirose HSC series. It terminates a single 2.0mm cable with a PC-polished ferrule — the PC (Physical Contact) polish gives a flat endface that returns < -40 dB for single-mode links, though the 9.5µm/50µm core diameter listed here spans both single-mode and multimode fiber. The blue boot and integrated strain relief are standard for patch cord or pigtail assembly in data center, telecom, or industrial fiber runs. The free-hanging (in-line) mount means it mates directly to a bulkhead adapter or transceiver without a panel latch. The 125µm cladding diameter is the industry standard for glass fiber, so this plug works with common fusion splice or mechanical splice tooling.
This plug mates with HSC-series receptacles or adapters using the same ferrule alignment sleeve. The PC-polished ferrule requires a clean, scratch-free endface for low insertion loss — field termination should follow the manufacturer's recommended cleave and polish procedure. The strain relief boot grips the 2.0mm cable jacket; for other cable diameters, the boot may not seal or grip properly.
The UL94 V-0 flammability rating is the key compliance signal for equipment-level certification; RoHS and REACH documentation is available on request from the manufacturer or through our RFQ process.
