Specifications of DTX-MFM2

• Multimode Fiber Module Set: ROHS COMPLIANT

The gray mandrels included with the DTX-MFM2 are
compliant with ANSI/TIA-568-C for 62.5 µm fiber with a
3 mm jacket. Mandrels for 50 µm fiber are available from
Fluke Networks. Refer to the appropriate standard for
mandrel requirements if you follow other standards. Table
1 shows a partial list of mandrel requirements for TIA
standards.
