    I believe DECconnect will carry them soon.  See note 1423.3 for a list of
    suppliers, or check with the PM (George Nielsen) at DELNI::G_NIELSEN.
    We've purchased SC to ST connectors from outside vendors before, so I know
    they're commercially available.

| 1555.3 | SC connectors ???? | 51488::SOHLMAN | Jouko Sohlman , NIS Helsinki Finland | Fri Feb 03 1995 05:26 | 15 | 
|  | 	Hello !
	I looked from the Networking Catalogue (winter 94-95).
	The text is talking about the duplex SC connectors for
	DEFPA-DA/AA, but in the picture of the adapters the connectors are
	shown as duplex FC!! (as far as I know).
	Look at the same Catalogue, there is also our new Turbo/ATM-
	adapter (DGLTA-FA) and it is using FC connectors, they look 
	pretty much the same as the connectors in the DEFPA-DA/AA!!
	Is it a typo?

    I don't know what "duplex FC" connectors are, but yes, we are using the
    same connectors as the GIGAswitch/ATM and ATM TurboCHANNEL adapter
    products.  I know them as "SC" connectors.  Perhaps Dick can post a reply
    explaining the difference?

| 1555.5 | FC == Single-mode | NPSS::KIRK |  | Fri Feb 03 1995 12:41 | 9 | 
|  |     FC connectors have been used on our Single-mode products.  I am not aware
    of any of our multimode products that use FCs.  It's a simple hearing
    error to confuse 'SC' with 'FC'.
    
    I will look at the new Networks handbook.
