NOTE
l When the distance between two AAUs is shorter than 100 m (328. 08 ft), a multimode fiber optic cable
is used. When the distance is longer than or equal to 100 m (328. 08 ft.), a single-mode fiber optic cable
is used.
l A cascading CPRI fiber optic cable must be connected to the optical module in a CPRI port. A
multimode fiber optic cable and single-mode fiber optic cable are connected to a multimode optical
module and single-mode optical module, respectively.
