I need some help with tring to find the proper cables needed for the
following FDDI adapter. My customer has a DEFAA-YA with two DEFXS-AA's
mounted to it. The DEFXS-AA's have little round connectors with
protective caps that screw off. The problem is they use a different
type of connector on their FDDI, which is a MIC connector. Is there an
adapter cable that will convert the connector on the DEFXS-AA to a MIC?
Would you include the part number if you have it?
Thanks,
Mike

There's a reply somewhere in this conference with a current (at the
time) list of Open DECconnect part #'s that are FDDI-related. My
advice would be to get a catalog and look for a MIC to ST cable. The
ST connectors are the small round connectors that you were referring
to.

If the connectors on the DEFXS-AA screw off, then your customer has an
older vintage Single-mode PMD - the one with FC connectors. We do not
sell single-mode cables. But any reputable fiber cable house should be
able to sell a cable that has FC connectors on one end and a MIC
connector on the other. Our documentation should have pointers to some
cable vendors - ATT, Siecor, 3M.
Our newer SMF PMD, the DEFXS-BA has the ST connectors that Larry
described in the previous note.
