1 Due to the dual media (single-mode and multimode) support of the LX transmitter, fulfillment of this specification requires
a single-mode fiber offset-launch mode-conditioning patch cord described in IEEE 802.3, Clause 38.11.4 for MMF
operation. This patch cord is not used for single-mode operation.
