Gigabit Ethernet (1 Gbps) Optical Specifications
NOTE
• Maximum segment length is greatly dependent on factors such as fiber quality, and the number
of patches and splices. Consult a Siemens sales associate when determining maximum segment
distances.
• All optical power numbers are listed as dBm averages.
• F51 transceivers are rated for -40 to 85 °C (-40 to 185 °F).
