Single-mode Fibre Channel cables are not provided. A list of Fibre Channel cable
suppliers can be found at the Compaq website: www.compaq.com
Single-mode Fibre Channel cables are capable of supporting distances of
500 meters to 10 kilometers. These cables are for use with Longwave GBICs
only. To ensure product integrity, Compaq recommends a 9/125 µm, single-
mode optical fiber that complies with Bellcore GR409. The cable assembly
should be terminated with SC Duplex Connectors at each end which are
NNT-SC-, Bellcore 326-, and IEC-874-19 SC-compliant.
