NOTI•FIRE•NET™ PN 50257:E 7/5/01
Total the attenuation factors obtained in steps a. and b. This will provide an approximate
attenuation total. The actual attenuation can be measured end-to-end with fiber optic industry
standard equipment using a test wavelength of 850 nanometers.
2.
The system path length is limited. The system path length is defined as the distance a signal
would have to travel from one end of the network to the other end (refer to Figure 2). The
length is influenced by the total number of MIB, NAM-232, RPT devices, and medium along
the circuit path. Refer to Figure 3 for system limitations.
