*Higher output lasers available for range over 25km |
Note:
1. Distance is limited to fiber loss, splices, chromatic dispersion and bandwidth
2. Range estimates are based on 1.0dB/km @ 1310nm on MM fiber, 0.35dB/km @ 1310nm and 0.25dB/km @ 1550nm on SM fiber, and include a 3dB safety factor
3. Range estimates for multimode are based on 1000MHz/km fiber
