The fiber connector is a standard connector or square connector (SC).
Note: In the IEEE standard, it suggests the available transmission distance is 2KM for 62.5/125um fiber optical cable in
1310nm wave length. Actually, the attenuation of Multi-Mode 62.5/125um optical fiber cable is 1.5dBm/km and the
maximum link distance can up to 4 to 5km.
