APPENDIX B

GPIM SPECIFICATIONS

This appendix lists the specifications and regulatory requirements for the 
GPIMs and the media they use. Cabletron Systems reserves the right to 
change these specifications at any time without notice. The available 
GPIM options are the GPIM-01 and GPIM-09. The GPIM-01 and 
GPIM-09 are both fiber optic devices with an SC connector. The 
GPIM-01 supports multimode (MMF) fiber cable, and the GPIM-09 
supports both multimode and single mode (SMF) fiber cable.
