BayStack Single Mode Fiber Media Adapter
The optical power budget for the single-mode fiber media adapter is shown in Table 1. Power loss in the link cannot exceed the value for the type of fiber optic cable you are using.
Table 3. Single-mode fiber optical power budget
Parameter | 9/125 ∝m |
| |
Transmitted power (average) | –29.0 dBm |
Receiver sensitivity (average) | –35.5 dBm |
Optical power budget | 6.5 dB |
| |
Only in-line fiber-to-fiber connections (a connection between two fibers terminated with fiber connectors, using a fiber-to-fiber connector) count against the optical power budget. The loss in a fiber connection at the ends of the link is included in the optical power budget and does not count as an in-line connection.
NOTE: Your fiber connection must meet the optical power budget and the Ethernet repeater rules for your network.
