Network Fiber Connection Types

Working in data centers with Blade Centers and Cisco switches--you almost always will be dealing with some type of fiber connection.  Honestly, I always need to go back and refer to some chart defining fiber cable types--so I thought I would post a quick guide to fiber types and pictures of the numerous connectors.  Click on the connection picture or name for more information.  I hope you find this useful:
