Optical path
Attenuation range 10 dB to 24 dB 10 dB to 24 dB
Nominal reach (see Note 3 ) 40 km 80 km
Minimum optical return loss 20 dB 24 dB
Dispersion limited distance (see Note 4 ) - -
Attenuation limited distance (see Note 4 ) 68.6 km 96 km
Note 1:
All parameter values in the above table achieve an optical system BER better than 1x10
-10
when used over G.652 specified SMF-28 fiber.
Note 2: Power monitor accuracy figures are for normal operating range (minimum to maximum
transmit power, receiver sensitivity to overload).
Note 3: Nominal reach figures are for classification purposes only as defined in the appropriate
standards.
Note 4:
The dispersion and attenuation limited distances are based on the dispersion and
attenuation coefficients detailed in Table 7-22 on page 7-23 and are for guidance only and must be
verified by a full link budget calculation. The actual limiting distance is the lower of the dispersion
limited or attenuation limited distances.
