AW: [802.3ae_Serial] 1550 power budget




Hi,
There is one question I (and others) still have, and this is how to
interpret the 1550 nm interface power (OMA) levels and the attenuation. The
figures as written are not real transparent for me as the minimum
transmission signal and the receiver sensitivity together with the
attenuation do not add up to 0. can somebody help me there?
regards Juergen Rahn
