MSS Fibre ST-ST DUPLEX SM PATCHLEAD 10 MTR DSTST10M-SM

Description

Reliable Singlemode Fibre Connectivity

The MSS Fibre Systems patch lead uses singlemode (SM) fibre, making it suitable for telecommunications infrastructure and high-speed metropolitan access networks. Its applications include CATV and video systems, Passive Optical Networks (PON), Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM/DWDM) and Fibre to the Home (FTTH) installations.

The ST-to-ST connector configuration allows connections between compatible ST fibre interfaces. Its duplex design supports two optical fibre paths within one cable assembly, making it suitable for network arrangements requiring separate transmit and receive paths. Confirm connector compatibility and the required fibre specifications before installation.

Durable Construction for Network Installations

Featuring a 3mm Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) sheath, this patch lead is designed for environments where cable material selection is an important consideration. LSZH materials are formulated to produce reduced smoke and no halogen acid gases when exposed to fire, compared with conventional halogen-containing cable materials.

The yellow cable jacket provides a readily identifiable finish for fibre optic installations. Factory-terminated connectors help simplify patching between active equipment and fibre panels, reducing the need for on-site connector termination. The assembly is rated for up to 500 mating cycles in accordance with IEC 61300-2-2, supporting repeated connection and disconnection during routine network maintenance.

Practical Patching Across Fibre Networks

At 10 metres long, this duplex patch lead offers flexibility when connecting equipment positioned apart within telecommunications rooms, equipment racks and data centre environments. It is suited to professional installations that require ST connector interfaces and singlemode fibre.

For dependable performance, handle connectors carefully, keep end faces clean and protect unused interfaces from dust and contamination. Verify the installed network’s fibre type, connector requirements and optical specifications before use to ensure the patch lead matches the application.
