1. G.652, listed under core size for single mode fiber (SMF), refers to a ITU-T standard of commonly deployed non-dispersion-shifted single mode
fiber with a core size of approximately 8 to 10 microns (µm).

3. For distances up to 30 km, no special link design rules need to be considered. Link distances beyond 30 km require that you verify the cable
characteristics, especially the cable’s loss value.

3. Receiver sensitivity for 10G Ethernet links with no FEC. With FEC-capable receiver ports and for OTU2/OTU2e links, receiver sensitivity is improved
to –27 dBm. Also a 3 dB dispersion penalty should be taken into account for both FEC and non-FEC cases.
