3.3 Fiber Cables
For different fiber connections, several alternative models can be selected for different fiber connections as follows:
Model | Connector | Wavelength | Cable Max. Distance*3 | ||
ST | 1300nm | MM*1 | 2 | Km | |
SC | 1300nm | MM | 2 | Km | |
SC | 1300nm | SM*2 | 15 | Km | |
SC | 1300nm | SM | 30 | Km | |
SC | 1300nm | SM | 50 | Km | |
1300nm | MM | 2 | Km | ||
1300nm | SM | 15 | Km | ||
1300nm | MM | 2 | Km | ||
1300nm | SM | 15 | Km |
*1 : Multimode fiber cable
*2 : Single Mode fiber cable
*3 : The maximum distance connecting to a full duplex device
The recommended multimode fiber is 62.5/125∝ m and 9/125∝ m for single mode fiber.
The following figure illustrates a connection example between two SC fiber ports:
