The HSC-PH2-E2(75): The HSC-PH2-(75): The Hirose HSC-PH2-(75) is a simplex plug in the HSC series, designed for single-fiber optical terminations. It accepts 9.5/50 µm core fiber with 125 µm cladding — the standard for multimode telecom and datacom links — and terminates to a 2.0 mm cable. The Advanced PC Polished finish on the ferrule keeps insertion loss low, and the integral strain relief protects the fiber-cable junction from pull-out during routing or re-termination. The purple boot identifies this as a specific polish variant within the series.
Lifecycle Reality — Last Buy Status
This part is in Last Buy status. That means the manufacturer has issued a final production window, after which the HSC-PH2-(75) will no longer be manufactured. For current availability and to secure stock for your BOM line, sourcing is handled per RFQ — the supply channel is open but finite.
As a plug, the HSC-PH2-(75) mates with the corresponding HSC series receptacle or adapter using HSC ferrules. The free-hanging (in-line) mounting suits panel feed-throughs or patch cable builds where a bulkhead mount isn't needed.
Operating Range and Physical Constraints
Rated for -25°C to 70°C, the HSC-PH2-(75) covers indoor telecom cabinets, data center patch panels, and industrial control environments where temperature stays within that band. The 2.0 mm cable diameter is a hard fit — if your cable jacket is thicker or thinner, the strain relief won't seal or grip properly. Bulk packaging means it ships loose for hand termination in a harness shop.
