The F6150 Fiber transceiver contains 16 media converters. Each media converter accepts:

An Ethernet cable to connect the transceiver to a ClearCube chassis (CAT5,
CAT5e, CAT6, or CAT6e Ethernet cable)

A fiber cable to connect each media converter to a fiber C/Port (multi-mode,
50µm or 62.5µm fiber cable with an SC connector on the transceiver end and an
LC connector on the C/Port end)

for additional information.

Make sure your power strips, power grid, and circuit breakers can
safely provide the required current. Ensure that any extension cords
used meet local safety regulations and fire codes. When specifying
uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) be sure to include the Fiber
Transceiver peak current draws in your calculations to ensure the
UPS has adequate capacity.
