Table 2 lists the most common cable and connector combinations
for the 10BASE-FL media adapter, assuming the maximum
permitted attenuation with ST connectors. The table lists the
maximum (total) distance allowed in the fiber connection.
However, your fiber connection may have to be shorter to meet
the optical power budget and Ethernet repeater rules.
