Overview
This pack includes 100 ST mating sleeve dust caps, designed to provide essential protection for fiber optic ST adapters. These caps help maintain the integrity of optical interfaces by shielding them from dust, debris, and potential damage during storage or when the port is not in use.
Constructed for visibility and safety, these dust caps feature a green color and include a laser warning sticker. This is a critical safety component for network operators to ensure compliance with site protocols, alerting technicians to the presence of active fiber connections and preventing accidental exposure to laser radiation.
