OC-3 ATM Interface Cables
The OC-3 ATM circuit connection is made using two fiber SC connectors that
support 155.52 Mbps ATM traffic. Optional transceivers support multimode and
single-mode.
Fiber-optic cables come in many different configurations depending on the
equipment you are connecting and the power levels of the network you are
monitoring.
Table A-1 lists some OC-3 ATM cables and their part numbers. The OC-3
ATMProbe connectors are type SC. The 1 at the end of each AMP part number
indicates that the length of the cable is one meter and a 2 at the end of the part
number indicates a cable length of two meters, and so on.

The following is the industry standard for the color coding of fiber-optic cable:
z Yellow for Single Mode
z Orange for Multi-mode (AMP cables can be black or tan)
