Scope
In the Outband Point-to-Point topology, up to 8 links (using the LD800), i.e., 16 Gigabit Ethernet
lines, can be carried by the topology. A link consists of a fiberoptic cable terminated by two GM2
modules, one at each end, and can carry up to two Gigabit Ethernet lines. The maximum
operating range depends on the access side transceiver (SFP) and trunk side transceiver (SFP or
fixed). For the fixed transceiver (DWDM), the operating range is
100 km (62.1 mi).
