So a 1U rackmount is a rack to put hardware on that's 1U, 1.75 inches of vertical space. Correct?

Sorry to bother you once again, but I have another quesiton. What are the two types of fibre optic connections? I wasn't even aware there were two.
Thanks |

Right a rack will have mounting holes based on that size of components. Some components will take up more space than just 1 ru. For instance a ups or a draw that can hold a monitor or keyboard. As far as the fiber optic someone else wil have to take that one but i would venture a guess that if you went back to webopedia you can find an answer. Better yet just google it.
