Two cables (Tx and Rx) connect between each BVRDFIF. The typical maximum distance between units for a fibre network is 3km at slow or fast speed (multi mode) and 4km (single mode). 2.3.2 Connection Details Figure 2.4 — Typical Connection Details for BVRDFIF Fibre Network BVRDNET issue 3... -
Page 13: Commissioning
BVRD Network Installation Instructions 3 Commissioning The BVRDNET network has been designed to enable simple commissioning. The network can be connected one “span” at a time to minimise fault finding. There is no power distributed around the network and fault finding can be performed with units switched on. -
