The longest shortwave cable allowed is 500 meters, for 50um multimode fiber
(ESS FC 3022). You just need to get longer cables than the 31m cables
included with the ESS. For reference, look at the intro to SAN redbook,

Hello all,
I want to connect a new TSM Server (AIX) to our ESS with a FC Cable.
Our longest FC cable is 31 metres long. But I want to place the server in a
room, which is more than 31 metres away.
Could anyone show me a Webpage or any other information where I can find
informations about the possibilities to use cables longer than 31 Metres.
Someone told me, that this is the longest possible cable.....but I cannot
believe it.
(I know, this isn't really a TSM question, but if someone could help me,
this
would be great)
Greetings
Gerhard Wolkerstorfer
