Super C8 OTA and Visual Backs

Just purchased my first SCT recently and working on getting it set up. I don't own any 2" eyepieces yet, but if I can put a 2" visual back on this ota then I would love to invest in a few nice 2 inch EP's. Can a Celestron Super C8 support a 2" visual back? Pardon my ignorance on this matter, but just learning the ropes on sct's and finding there is a lot more I need to know.

They can... or you can just buy a 2-inch SCT style diagonal that will screw right onto the rear port. William Optics makes a niceun.
