A.3.1 TPIM-F2 for Multimode Fiber
The TPIM-F2 connector supports Multimode Fiber Optic Cabling.
The transmitter power and receive sensitivity levels given in Table A-2 are
Peak Power Levels after optical overshoot. A Peak Power Meter must be
used to correctly compare the given values to those measured on any
particular port. If Power Levels are being measured with an Average
Power Meter, then 3 dBm must be added to the measurement to correctly
compare those measured values to the values listed in Table A-2 (i.e. -30.5
dBm peak=-33.5 dBm average).
