4 About IP290 Appliance Network Interface Cards For long-range NICs, to connect the fiber-optic Gigabit Ethernet NIC to other network components, use a single-mode, fiber-optic cable with an LC connector for each NIC interface. The destination end of the cable can be either LC or SC, depending on the type of connector required for the destination Gigabit Ethernet device. You can also use a half-duplex LC-to-LC cable to loop back the transmit port of an interface to the receiver port. LC and SC define the fiber-optic connector types; LC connectors are smaller than SC connectors. Caution Depending on the product you order, one or more LC-to-SC cables are included with fiber-optic Gigabit Ethernet NICs. You can order additional cables from a cable vendor of your choice.Cables that connect to the Gigabit Ethernet NIC must be IEEE 802.3z compliant to prevent potential data loss. 44 Nokia IP290 Security Platform Installation Guide

Nokia IP290 Security Platform Installation Guide
For long-range NICs, to connect the fiber-optic Gigabit Ethernet NIC to other network
components, use a single-mode, fiber-optic cable with an LC connector for each NIC interface.
The destination end of the cable can be either LC or SC, depending on the type of connector
required for the destination Gigabit Ethernet device. You can also use a half-duplex LC-to-LC
cable to loop back the transmit port of an interface to the receiver port. LC and SC define the
fiber-optic connector types; LC connectors are smaller than SC connectors.
Caution
Depending on the product you order, one or more LC-to-SC cables are included with
fiber-optic Gigabit Ethernet NICs. You can order additional cables from a cable vendor
of your choice.
Cables that connect to the Gigabit Ethernet NIC must be IEEE 802.3z
compliant to prevent potential data loss.
