Operating Pointers | Troubleshooting Fiberlink® 3X3X Series Operating Pointers Remember to check attenuation of the fiber optic cable. The system will only operate properly if these specifications fall within the range of the system’s loss budget. Troubleshooting Multimode fiber optic cable contains an optical fiber with a light carrying “core” that is only .0025 inches (62.5 microns) in diameter.
