  • Page 13: Attenuation

    Attenuation 5. Attenuation The IQOTR31 has 1550 nm transmission lasers. The lasers have a higher optical power output than the 1310 nm variety. For link distances less than 15 km, this power is suffiecient to saturate receivers. As a precaution, all units with 1550 nm transmission lasers are fitted with a 5 dBm attenuator.
