RuggedCom® RuggedBackbone™ 38 RX1512 Installation Guide Rev 105
4.4. Fiber Ethernet Port Specifications
The following sections detail fiber optic specifications for ports that can be ordered with the
modules on a RuggedBackbone™ RX1512. The user determines the type of optics at time of
ordering, and can determine the modules installed on a particular unit by reading the factory data
file via the ROX™ user interface. Section 4.4.1, “Fast Ethernet (100Mbps) Optical Specifications”
and Section 4.4.2, “Gigabit Ethernet (1Gbps) Optical Specifications” list the specifications of
the optical transceivers used in the fiber Ethernet modules available for the RX1512. The
specifications are organized by order code. Module order codes are contained within each unit
when it is assembled and configured at the factory. Consult the RuggedCom ROX™ User Guide
for help in obtaining the factory configuration data.
