Note: When shorter lengths of single-mode fiber cable are used, there is a risk of overloading the receiver. It may be necessary to insert an in-line optical attenuator in the link to prevent overloading, as follows:
•Insert a 10 dB in-line optical attenuator between the fiber optic cable plant and the receiving port on the 1000BASE-ZX GBIC, at each end of the link, if the fiber optic cable span is less than 25 km.
•Insert a 5 dB in line optical attenuator between the fiber optic cable plant and the receiving port on the 1000BASE-ZX GBIC, at each end of the link, if the fiber optic cable span is less than 50 km.
