IMPORTANT: To ensure product integrity, Compaq recommends a 50/125 µm
multi-mode optical fiber that complies with Bellcore GR409. The cable assembly should
be terminated with SC Duplex Connectors (super polished ferrule) at each end. These
connectors must be NNT-SC-, Bellcore 326-, and IEC-874-19 SC-compliant.
NOTE: To connect distances between 500 meters and 10 kilometers, a single-mode Fibre
Channel cable and matching pair of longwave GigaBit Interface Converters (GBIC-LWs)
must be purchased. A list of fibre channel cable suppliers can be found at
www.compaq.com/fibrechannel/.
