fiber optic cable length

seccie

Hi guys,
I'm studying for my Net+ and I've got a question about fiber optic link length - it's quite tricky, because different CBT courses give different values.

What is the maximum length of 10BaseFL? 200m or 2000m?

What is the maximum length of 100BaseFX? 400m or 20.000m?

Thanks in advance for your input.

Thanks Johan,
I was sure a good soul will paste this link. I expected a bit of troubleshooting as well e.g. "the value 20.000m is because ..." or "it completely doesn't make sense" or "SMF mixed with MMF", etc. but as I see again the cruel life verifies negatively my hopeful expectations
