4.2.5RPM-FSC (Fiber SC, Snap-in Connector)

The Magnum RPM-FSC is also a multi-mode fiber optic repeater module,

similar to the RPM-FST. It has the same LEDs indicating port partitioned (PART), receive activity (RX), and link operational (LINK). It has the same jumper settings for extra distance in certain

circumstances.1

While the functionality of the these two	2
modules is the same, the RPM-FSC is equipped with	3

an SC-type "snap-in" connector instead of an ST-type "twist-lock" connector. Please refer to Section 3.2.4. for details.

4.2.6 RPM-SMF (Single-mode Fiber)

The Magnum RPM-SMF is a single-mode fiber optic module equipped with a dual ST-type connector. It functions as a full repeater to support single-mode fiber

networks. The RPM-SMF supports fiber
		Single-mode
optic transmission distances of up to 10		ST Connectors
Km. The RPM-SMF includes full
transceiver functionality and does not
require an external transceiver device.	1

the single-mode RPM-SMF from the multi-mode

RPM-FST, the label “Sgl. M.” is at the top of the faceplate of the RPM-SMF. As an additional indicator, a multi-mode TX port emits light (red in color) that is in the visible spectrum and which can be seen by looking into the port with the power on and with no cable connected. The single-mode TX port emits light outside of the visible spectrum and will always look dark to the human eye.

Note: Be sure to use single-mode fiber optic cable with this module. Single-mode fiber cable has a smaller diameter than multi-mode fiber cable (2/15 - 8/60 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).
