Hi Rusty, Thank you! That makes sense about the SYMC and so the SYMB with 10GbE are presumably for target-side. (My material just calls the models A-4... A-36, B-4....B-36, etc for the TB sizing - haven't even seen the acronym SYMC.)
Hopefully someone with more direct experience gets a chance to catch up email on the weekend.
