As with the single link cabling, inline topologies require both Receive and Transmit fibers, while
Receive-only systems use only Receive fibers.
Note
Receive-only topologies can be implemented using either an optical splitter or a switch. If a switch is
used, it must support SPAN functionality that includes separation between ingress and egress traffic and
multiple SPAN-ports destinations.
The following two diagrams illustrate the connections for dual links, with a single SCE 2000
deployed for both inline and receive-only topologies.
