Multi-Mode Fiber: up to 2 km between Devices
Multi-Mode Fiber supports two types of connectors, LC and SC. The LC connector is used on
SFPs on the RX3i PNC001 and on the PNS modules. The SC connector is used on the
VersaMax PNS. Cables are available with LC-to-LC connectors and LC-to-SC connectors to
match the different connector formats. Multi-Mode fiber can support distances up to 2Km
at 100Mbps. When using fiber, pay attention to the cable connector and cable radius
clearance requirements in cabinet planning and layout.

Single-Mode Fiber: up to 70 km between Devices
Single-Mode Fiber is supported between SFPs using the LC connector. Single-Mode fiber can
support distances up to 70 km. As with the Multi-mode fiber, pay attention to the cable
connector, radius, and minimum length requirements in planning the installation.
