Sample Calculations
Calculation One:
Assume connections to Port 1 and Port 2 only.
Port 1 cable = 1000 ft. in length
Port 2 cable = 4000 ft. in length (3000 ft. difference)
Result:
Based on Table
Port 1 requires compensation for 3000 ft. Selection 4
Calculation Two:
Assume connections to Port 1, Port 2, and Port 6 Port 6 cable = 5000 feet
Port 1 cable = 1000 ft. (5000 ft. - 1000 ft. = 4000 ft. difference) Port 2 cable = 4000 ft. (5000 ft. - 4000 ft. = 1000 ft. difference)
Result:
Based on Table
Port 6 requires no compensation. Selection 1 (0 dB loss)
Port 1 requires compensation for 4000 ft. Selection 6 (3500 - 4500) Port 2 requires compensation for 1000 ft. Selection 2 (500 - 1500 ft.)
Note that the lengths of Port 1 and Port 2 cable are the same as in Cal- culation One, however, with the addition of a longer length for Port 6, new settings are required for Port 1 and Port 2.
