dBm / mW and DWDM

Written by Arnaud 07 august 2014 no comments
You will learn in this ticket : dBm/mW equivalence, Appx Attenuation/range (km), DWDM Channels length and Freq:
20dBm = 100mW
10dBm = 10mW
3dBm = 2mW
0dBm = 1mW
-3dBm = 0,5mW
-10dBm = 0,1mW
-20dBm = 0,01mW
do not trust distance, you should make your math (adding attenuation of your links/connectors):
10dB 2/10km LR
13dB 15km
16/24dB 40km ER
26/28dB 80km ZR
32db 120km
37dB 160km
