The ST connectors are the new AT&T ones.  The SMA's are what nearly 
every piece of fiber equipment currently uses.   Of course, the old
AT&T biconical connectors while theoretically a lot better, were
pretty annoying because NOBODY sold them other than AT&T (and even
AT&T sometimes denied knowledge of them).
