EPIM Specifications
EPIM-F3
The EPIM-F3 supports Single Mode Fiber Optic cabling. It has an internal
Cabletron Systems FOT-F™ Fiber Optic Transceiver and is equipped with ST
Connectors. Figure A-3 shows the EPIM-F3. Specifications for the EPIM-F3 are
listed in Figure A-4 and Table A-3.
Transmitter Power decreases as temperatures rise and increases as
temperatures fall. Use the Output Power Coefficient to calculate increased or
NOTE
decreased power output for your operating environment. For example, the
typical power output at 25 C is -16.4 dBm. For a 4 C temperature increase,
multiply the typical coefficient (-0.15 dBm) by four and add the result to typical
output power (4 x -0.15 dBm + -16.4 = -17.0).
