various media types supported along with the corresponding IEEE 802.3 and 802.3u standards and connector types
are as follows:
Fiber:
IEEE Standard
Media Type
Max. Distance
Connector Type
100Base-FX multimode fiber
2km (6,562 ft)
SC or ST
100Base-FX
singlemode fiber
20km (65,616 ft)

NOTE : Since dual-speed ports are auto-sensing for either 10 and 100Mbps, it is recommended that high quality
CAT5 cables (which work for both 10Mbps and 100Mbps) be used whenever possible in order to provide flexibility in
a mixed-speed network
