I'm now high bidder on one of the other two C1201's, so look out :)

According to the second:

WS-C1511--DAS multimode FDDI, which accepts FDDI media interface
connectors (MICs)

WS-C1514--DAS single-mode FDDI, which accepts standard FDDI ST-type
connectors

I think I've seen fiber cables with the MIC connectors over at Property
Dispo for $5/each, so I might head on over there in the near future and
pick them all up. I'm not sure I'll ever use them tho', as FDDI sbus cards
are apparently unsupported by *BSD and Linux :/
