Hi,
Anyone using their 1000Base-SX Gigabit Ethernet card? (Mine's on an F630.)
Is the cable specification for it?
SC to SC - Multimode Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cable. 62.5/125 µm
I'm going to purchase a 1000Base-SX to 1000Base-TX converter so that I can hook this old beast up to our copper gigabit switch. The converters are all SC connectors. I have no experience with this fiber optic stuff.
The Gigabit card looks like the little square plugs (SC) but I can't find anything in the hardware specs for the F630. There is a lot of discussion about the Fiber Channel cable specs.
Any gotchas in my approach?
