they are hard to get a hold of, real hard.  I am sure digikey sells the cables but I do not know the name of the end connector. It's different the other fiber optic I have seen

A lucky search turned up this......

It's the off white one 3 down in the picture. I'm not definite on this, but it looks right.

Avago site

gives a PDF of the 4506 range, but I haven't studied it....

yes. I ended up buying one from Martinsound. I know they are in the Los Angeles area but give them a call and talk with Joe Flowers.

here is the cable :

Make sure to get the very dark grey and not the light grey cable. the dark has a much higher bandwidth and lower los. the proper one will have the: HFBR-4516Z – Duplex Latching plug as shown in the post above
cheers.
also I set one trimmer to 30ohms and the other to 65ohms to start to set up current. I cant remember which but I think the card on top of the rack is 30 and the computer card is 65.

Thanks

But if I understand it correctly that link you send is a "Standard Simplex Connectors" with a "Simplex cable"
according to the datasheet with the code "RNS010Z"

You mean to get 2 of those cable
or should a get a cable with a singel double connector(DUPLEX)
Like this one?

I might have copied the wrong link, YES FULL Duplex. Digikey was offering the same image for several things...

 

[mg73]

Ok thanks.
I try that Digikey cable

I found out that Martinsound builds their own cables with "Extra Low Loss POF" cable
but that cable can only be bought in bulk lengths of 500m
