ST Connectors and Adapters
Amphenol’s 953 series fiber optic ST and ST II connectors
utilize a bayonet style mating concept to provide a secure,
robust coupling mechanism.
coupling nut allows easy insertion in densely packed patch
panels. The ST connector has been used extensively in
telecom, data and premise installation applications and could
easily be considered a de facto standard. The ST’s mass
installation base will maintain its prominence for years to come.
Amphenol’s ST compatible connectors are exceptionally suited
for factory and field installations. Special attention has been
given to every ST performance parameter, increasing product
repeatability and exceeding industry standards.
