3.8.3Connecting Fiber Optic SC-type, "Snap-In"
The following procedure applies to installations using SC-type fiber connectors, i.e., using multi-mode SC and SC single-mode. While connecting fiber media to SC connectors, simply snap on the two square male connectors into the SC female jacks of the Fiber connector until it clicks and secures.
3.8.4Connecting Single-Mode Fiber Optic
When using single-mode fiber cable, be sure to use single-mode fiber port connectors. Single-mode fiber cable has a smaller diameter than multi-mode fiber cable (9/125 microns for single-mode, 50/125 or 62.5/125 microns for multi-mode where xx/xx are the diameters of the core and the core plus the cladding respectively). Single-mode fiber allows full bandwidth at longer distances, about 20Km with the multi-mode SC.
The same procedures as for multi-mode fiber apply to single-mode fiber connectors. Follow the steps listed in Section 3.8.2 above.
