Note 1: Multimode fiber = MMF; single mode fiber = SMF
Note 2: The TIA 568 building wiring standard calls for 160/500 MHz-Km multimode fiber
Note 3: The international ISO/IEC 11801 building wiring standard calls for 200/500 MHz-Km
multimode fiber
Note 4: The ANSI Fibre Channel specification calls for 500/500 MHz/Km 50 micron multimode fiber
and 500/500 fiber will be proposed for addition to ISO/IEC 11801
Note 5: Using LX optics on multimode fiber may require the use of DMD-compensating patch cords
Note 6: CWDM GBICs require a minimum of 5dB attenuation between transmitter and receiver.
Safety margin includes normal 3dB plus 2.4 Sigma value for CWDM variation. Maximum distance is
only achievable without OADM and OMUX in the path
