Termination with fail-safe 1)
S2
1) The fail-safe function forces the signal state of the
receiver to OFF when the connected transmitter is in
tri-state transmitter inactive). The receiver located
furthest away shall be terminated.

Attenuation in fibre cable
The values below can differ depending on quality and manufacturer of the fibre-optic
cable.
”Min. value” states the minimum guaranteed power budget. Experience shows however that the
typical value is in the range of the indicated ”Typ. value”.
