EPIM-F3
The EPIM-F3 supports Single Mode Fiber Optic cabling. It has an internal Cabletron Systems
FOT-F Fiber Optic Transceiver and is equipped with ST Connectors.
Figure 80 shows the
EPIM-F3. Specifications for the EPIM-F3 are listed in Table 31 .

NOTE
Transmitter Power decreases as temperatures rise and increases as temperatures fall.
Use the Output Power Coefficient to calculate increased or decreased power output for
your operating environment. For example, the typical power output at 25
°
C is
-16.4 dBm. For a 4
°
C temperature increase, multiply the typical coefficient (-0.15 dBm)
by four and add the result to typical output power (4 x -0.15 dBm + -16.4 = -17.0).

NOTE
The transmitter power levels given above are Peak Power Levels after optical
overshoot. You must use a Peak Power Meter to correctly compare the values given
above to those measured on any particular port. If you are measuring power levels with
an Average Power Meter, add 3 dBm to the average power measurement to correctly
compare the average power values measured to the values listed above (i.e., -33.5
dBm average + 3 dB = -30.5 dBm peak).
