How to plug multimode fiber to Cisco WS-C2950SX on the one side and Catalyst
3550 12G on the other?
What connectors do I need?
Thanks

Hi Lucasz,
I don't want to diminish the huge pool of expertise that you are tapping
into when asking for advise on the Usenet, but if I were you, I would not
base my purchasing decision on the answers you can receive here. You are
talking about parts that affect operation of multi-thousand dollar
equipment. There is always a possibility that some important info is
missing. Besides, in your case both boxes are by the same manufacturer, so
why don't you just give them a call?

I forgot to mention that my question is just theoretical. I am not going to
implement this network in the near future. I need to know how to physically
join multimode fiber with above devices and what kind of connectors to use.
Thanks,

The datasheets for the devices do have this information in them. (ie.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps628/products_data_sheet09186a00801cfb71.html
and I'm assuming
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/modules/ps872/products_data_sheet09186a008014cb5e.html
Since you only specify the 3550-12G which really has no connectors on
it without adding on things, I'm guessing what you're actually going
to be using.
But if this is more than just a single quick connection, you'll
probably want to pull fiber to patch panels, and then if things change
you can just change out your patch cord rather than redo the fiber
terminations. |
