Conditions and configuration notes
- A value in dBm describes optical power; a value in dB describes gain, loss or an optical budget. A link budget is not a distance in kilometres.
- Performance depends on channel loading, fibre losses and the selected operating point; family limits do not automatically apply together.
- The gain-flatness and ripple entries are stated at particular gain, tilt and output conditions; retain those conditions when specifying acceptance.
