Figure 6: ST and SC Connectors
Straight Tip Connectors
Straight Tip connectors mate through a two-pin, bayonet-style interface.
They are popular simply because they have less attenuation and less
vulnerability to human error than previous fiber optic connectors such as a
Sub Miniature Assembly (SMA).
On the other hand, if your existing (usually older) networking environment
uses SMA (or Biconic) connectors, a commercially available ST-SMA hybrid
cable allows easy conversion from one type of connector to the other. This cable
is a one-meter duplex fiber optic cable with ST connectors on one end and SMA
connectors on the other.
