509.0. "Need info on patch cables" by PEACHS::SCHULTZ (Be a Coffee Achiever !!!) Thu Mar 19 1992 14:30

    
    I have a question on the DEC BN24E fiber patch cable. Is this cable for
    FDDI only (1300nm) or is it a dual window cable that can also be used
    for ethernet (DEBAM-RC to DEBAM-RC) connections ??
    
    Cable says "DECconnect Fiber Office Cable Type OFNR (UL) 62.5/125
    E102042"  but says nothing about being dual window cable.
    
    Need this in a hurry if anyone is reading this...

509.1Yes, the jumpers are Dual-WindowAUNTB::REEDJohn Reed @CBO - DTN: 367-6463 = DNISFri Mar 20 1992 13:588
    The Fiber Optic Planning and Config Guide on page 11-27 shows the BN24E
    series of Patch jumpers as being rated at both windows.
