Verifying Maximum
Attenuation for
Mixed Fibers
If you mix Category 1 and Category 2 receivers and transmitters, use
Table E-7 to verify the maximum attenuation for each possible
combination.
Table E-7 to verify the maximum attenuation for each possible
combination.
*This combination is dispersion-limited rather than loss-limited. The
expected maximum length is approximately 35 km.
expected maximum length is approximately 35 km.
Example. If a Category 2 transmitter is outputting to a Category 1
receiver, the maximum attenuation is 26.0.
receiver, the maximum attenuation is 26.0.
DS-3 Coax Cables
Connect the CoreBuilder 7000 DS-3 interface by a 75 Ohm coaxial cable
that complies with DS-3 standards. The maximum cable length is 450
feet. To connect the DS-3 interface:
that complies with DS-3 standards. The maximum cable length is 450
feet. To connect the DS-3 interface:
1 Prepare two coax cables - one for Tx and one for Rx. You may want to
mark the ends of the cables to identify them easily.
2 Connect both cables to the DS-3 BNC connectors on the CoreBuilder
interface. Make sure to connect Rx and Tx cables according to what is
indicated on the interface front panel.
indicated on the interface front panel.
3 Connect the two cables at the other end according to the opposite of the
first connection Rx to Tx and Tx to Rx.
