Sumitomo CS-DL72 H-PCF Fiber Jumper, 200/230 um, DL-72 Duplex Connector
The Sumitomo CS-DL72 is an H-PCF (Hard Polymer-Clad Fiber) duplex fiber jumper using 200/230 um silica-core fiber with a Sumitomo DL-72 duplex connector, built for industrial automation and factory data links.
Product Overview
H-PCF uses a pure silica glass core surrounded by a hard fluorinated polymer cladding, giving a mechanically robust fiber between all-glass fiber and POF. The standard HC grade here is 200 um core / 230 um cladding with NA 0.4. The jumper is terminated with Sumitomo’s DL-72 duplex connector – a crimp-and-cleave connector visible on the black molded housing marked “DL-72 SUMITOMO”. This product line is part of our Sumitomo optic fiber cable category.
Key Features
- Sumitomo H-PCF, 200/230 um silica core / fluoroacrylate hard cladding.
- DL-72 duplex connector with Sumitomo diamond marking, crimp & cleave termination.
- Orange duplex round cord with yellow branch tails as photographed.
- Suited to industrial FA and general-industry duplex data links.
- Rugged polymer cladding for easier handling and cleave-only termination.

Fiber optical values above are taken from Sumitomo Electric official H-PCF documentation (standard HC type). The exact JIS connector designation and cord order code should be confirmed against your device before ordering.
Applications
Industrial automation (FA), general industry duplex data links, control-board and indoor inter-rack links, and replacement of existing Sumitomo H-PCF duplex cords. For high-power visible-light delivery consider the SMA905 high-power connector; for decorative visible-light POF see the Asahi Kasei DB-750 / DB-1000 PMMA fiber.
Ordering and Customization
Tell us the required length, the device or port you are connecting, and confirm whether you need DL-72 on both ends or a mixed termination. Request a quote at sales@fevelectronics.com. More background is in the FAQ for H-PCF and POF assemblies; browse from the home page.
FAQ
What does H-PCF mean?
Hard Polymer-Clad Fiber: a pure silica glass core with a hard fluorinated (fluoroacrylate) polymer cladding. It sits between all-glass fiber and plastic optical fiber and is widely used in industrial links.
Is this a PMMA plastic fiber?
No. Although the listing bundle mentions PMMA 1.0 mm SKUs, this specific CS-DL72 product is 200/230 um H-PCF (silica core), not PMMA POF. Confirm the fiber type for your order.
Which connector is fitted?
Sumitomo DL-72 duplex, crimp & cleave, as molded on the black housing. The exact JIS F07/F08 designation varies by source; confirm against your equipment.
Why Choose Us
We source Sumitomo H-PCF jumpers to the 200/230 um grade and DL-72 connector actually shown, keep official Sumitomo fiber parameters traceable, and flag the designations that need confirmation rather than overstating compatibility. Start from the Sumitomo category or the home page.
