*1 Regarding 1000BASE-LX, some kinds of multiple-terminal mode optical fiber may increase the BER (bit error rate). In such cases,
use of mode-conditioning patch cords can clear the communication problem.

The optical fiber cables should be 3 m longer than the length needed to maintain the device.
The extra part should be wound near the device. When optical fiber and other interface cables
are used together, pay attention not to apply excessive stress on the optical fibers.
Always have some extra optical fiber cables on hand.
For details about interfaces, see Appendix BÅ@Physical Specifications of Network Interfaces.
