How to read this profile
Interface identification and source-scoped construction only. No measured drawing, mirrored rear view, termination map or electrical pinout is supplied.
Source-scoped identification facts
Each value retains its exact example, role and measurement axis. Facts from different parts must not be combined into an invented component.

Recorded variant and source limits
Fiber type, polish, optical loss budget and exact counterpart are separate checks.
No dimensioned mating interface or electrical contact map is published. Never look into a fiber to identify it.
TE’s 5504008-series ST kit example has an alignment key, metal coupling nut and stainless-steel ferrule. Its 501381-1 receptacle is described for joining two bayonet connectors.
AFL lists a nominal 2.5 mm ferrule for its ST connector overview. AFL describes quick-release bayonet(stick and twist) body.
