1897.0. "Need Tx launch & Rx input signal values for MMF ports" by MKOTS3::BLANCHETTE () Fri Dec 08 1995 09:08

We are looking for the values for Transmit launch signals and Receive input
signals for FDDI fiber MIC ports. 

An installer asked us this question specifically for the DECswitch 900EF. 
We have also been asked this several times for other products. Are the 
values the same for all FDDI MMF device ports?

I have checked the 900EF FDDI port specification, the functional hardware
specification, and other resources.

The values will be in -dBm.

Thanks!

     Subject:  Optical Power Detail Budgets for FDDI products


     The optical power budgets for FDDI Products are as follows:


     Multimode PMD:

     	Transmitter Minimum Optical Power:	-20 dBm
     	Transmitter Maximum Optical Power:	-14 dBm

     	Receiver Minimum Sensitivity:		-31 dBm
     	Receiver Maximum Optical Input Power:	-14 dBm

        Resultant Optical Power Budget =       0 to 11 dB.


     Single-mode PMDs

        Transmitter Minimum Optical Power:      -8  dBm
        Transmitter Maximum Optical Power:      -2 dBm

        Receiver Minimum Sensitivity:           -30 dBm
        Receiver Maximum Optical Input Power:   -14 dBm

        Resultant Optical Power Budget =       12 to 22 dB.
