Table A-2. Transmitter Power Parameters

Parameter	Typical Value	Worst	Worst Case	Typical
		Case	Budget	Budget
50/125 ∝m fiber	-13.0 dBm	-15.0 dBm	13.0 dB	17.5 dB
62.5/125 ∝m fiber	-10.0 dBm	-12.0 dBm	16.0 dB	20.5 dB
100/140 ∝m fiber	-7.0 dBm	-9.0 dBm	19.0 dB	23.5 dB
Error Rate	Better than 10 -10

NOTE

The transmitter power levels and receive sensitivity levels listed are Peak Power Levels after optical overshoot. A Peak Power Meter must be used to correctly compare the values given above to those measured on any particular port. If Power Levels are being measured with an Average Power Meter, then 3 dBm must be added to the measurement to correctly compare those measured values to the values listed (i.e., -30.5 dBm peak = -33.5 dBm average).

EPIM-F3

The EPIM-F3 supports Single Mode Fiber Optic cabling. It has an internal Cabletron Systems FOT-F™ Fiber Optic Transceiver and is equipped with ST Connectors. Figure A-3shows the EPIM-F3. Specifications for the EPIM-F3 are listed in Table A-3.

The link distance is up to 40 kilometers (max) and 25 kilometers (typical) on single mode fiber-optic cable as specified by ANSI SMF-PMD.
