LX100 SFP Module

To prevent permanent damage to the LX100 SFP module, always check the optical input power of the

receiver before you insert the fiber cable. The maximum optical input power is -9 dBm. If you use an

optical loopback for diagnostics, the loopback requires a minimum of 12 dB optical attenuation. The

recommended attenuation range is 12 to 20 dB.
