*The FT85011 transmitter/FR85011 receiver is classified by the FDA as a Class 1 laser product.
†
Optical power budget is specified using 62.5/125 µm fiber. When using 50/125 µm fiber,
subtract 4 dB from the optical power budget.
‡
Maximum transmission distance is limited by fiber bandwidth.
§
Maximum transmission distance is based on attenuation of 0.5 dB/km plus a 5 dB buffer for
connector and splice losses.
