1 SMF = Single-mode fiber
2 The recommended mimimum range is
stated in all cases where the maximum
transmitter output power exceeds the
receiver’s saturation level. This is to
prevent blinding or burning out of the
optical receiver on the far-end mode.
3. Distance is calculated based on ideal
situations without any other loss factor
