What is the FDDI connector key type on the DECconcentrator 500 DEFCN?
The customer says there are "M", "S" and "D" type keys?
Thanks,
Dale

On DEFCN-M*, there is an A port and a B port.
All other DEFCN modules have four to six M ports.
The keys shipped with multimode FDDI cables are labeled A, B, and M. A
connector without a key is type S, and will work with all four port
types. Installing the keys will prevent incorrect cable connections,
however, key installation certainly isn't mandatory.
There is no D type key in FDDI.
