3.4.5
AGC Mode
This mode is the recommended mode and also the standard operation.
The optical transmitter will automatically adjust to the optimal gain while the input
level is in the working range (see the technical data sheet). And the specified OMI
(rms) modulation index will be automatic gain control.
3.4.6
MGC Mode
Special users, who need to adjust system CNR/CSO/CTB performance indexes to
satisfy the specified requirements, can use this mode. The amplification gain
attenuation range 0-15dB.
(Not recommend).
