ST fiber patch cord is still the most popular patch cord, this fiber patch cord has a bayonet mount and a long cylindrical 2.5 mm ceramic (usually) or polymer ferrule to hold the fiber. Clearly speaking, The ST fiber patch cord (Straight Tip) is a fiber patch cord which uses a plug and socket which is locked in place with a half-twist bayonet lock. The ST patch cord was the first defactor standard for fiber optic cabling and ST fiber patch cord is one of the leading fiber patch cords.
The Telecomposer ST patch cord has a bayonet-style housing and a long spring-loaded ferrule hold the fiber. They are available in both multimode or singlemode versions. Horizontally mounted simplex and duplex adapters are available with metal or plastic housing, with a choice of phosphor bronze or zirconia split sleeve. Telecomposer also offers the epoxy-free ST XPFit patch cord for quick field termination. The ST is one of the older generations of patch cord, but is still widely used for multimode networks, including LANs for buildings and campuses.
