I agree that it is not obvious that a few ps/nm of CD is what drives us to require inner FEC for 500m. Maxim - Thank you for reminding us of the referenced presentation which also suggested reducing the loss for the shorter distance to maybe 1.5dB (less and probably better connectors). As a mode for a single PMD that is guaranteed to work over the full 500m with 3dB loss this could be a very interesting option to save power in a data center.

Hi Maxim,
200G 100m SMF PHY not requiring an inner FEC is an interesting hypothesis. If 500m does not work, then 100m is logical reach to look at. It's not obvious that a few ps/nm of CD is what drives us to require inner FEC for 500m, but this and other hypotheses now need to be proved or disproved through measurements. There are lots of possible experimental outcomes for not requiring inner FEC; 500m, 100m, or it's not possible.
At this point, there is no need to do anything with respect to modifying how we meet existing objectives (ex. two modes) or adding new objectives until substantive measurements are presented. In parallel we can continue to investigate how to switch inner FEC on and off.

In response to Mike's email, which makes a lot of sense to me & the 100m notion - a proposal for 100m SMF based PHYs was brought up during the study group phase but not supported back then:
https://www.ieee802.org/3/B400G/public/21_03/stassar_b400g_01a_210315.pdf
But it might be an interesting discussion, given the newly found LPO angle for AI clusters at shorter reaches and the move to 200G AUI in the future.

All,
Mike has summed things up perfectly in his second paragraph below regarding the one versus two PHY question. The only thing I can add to this is that we raised the question of whether an optimized receiver was desired in the presentation. The conversation went everywhere during the Q&A, and I don’t think we ever really resolved that question. If we develop different receivers with no mandatory inter-operable mode we have an issue.
And as I had noted, based on the conversations I have had, it appears that people have been interpreting the relevant presentations and even motions differently.

To me what makes it one phy versus two phys is the following.
All compliant devices must be inter-operable and meet the defined objective
in their default mode. Having additional (optional or required) defined
modes (e.g. FEC in 10GBASE-KR) or bypass inner FEC MODE for 200GBASE-DR does not make it two phys provided there is the mandatory inter-operable mode
that is the default and meets the objective. (Whether operation at other
than the default is changed via auto-negotiation or an engineered solution
doesn’t in my opinion change whether it is one phy.).
Sticking with the idea of the two modes but one Phy we could decide that in bypass mode the guaranteed link budget and reach is less (i.e. channel is better as Chris and Tom have suggested) and then , if my suggestion of auto-negotiation based on achieved error rate is used, the statistics of Tx’s and Rx’s being better than worst case will actually mean the majority
of links can operate in the Bypass mode at the defined objective. (This
would only guarantee the lower power and latency with the better channel but could be significant statistical help for data center power dissipation
and latency). A 2dB link budget reduction would I think compensate for
much of the difference in required BER with the FEC bypassed. It could be
achieved by relaxing the TDEC max and TDECQ max for the KP4 only Probability
by 2dB and reducing the min OMA-TDECQ/TDEC by 2dB. A reduction in
length to 100m might also be worthwhile and at that length I don’t see a need to have a TDECQ spec TDEC should be fine by itself. Note that if people are worried about latency they shouldn’t be having >100m lengths of fiber as this is approx 500ns latency which is way more latency than the inner FEC).

I will be discussing this topic further with Mr. Law shortly.
Despite assertions it is the same device - the current tx proposal is not the same device running at lower rates as there were other changes to the tx / tx proposed.
Your patience is appreciated

Hi Ali,
If inner FEC is specified for plug and play DR and FR, the specifications for the no inner FEC mode falls out of it. It's the same implementation operating at the lower rate. This leads to reduced performance, for example lower power budget. Whether that's useful is a separate question.
Given the confidence by TF participants in no inner FEC feasibility, we should revisit writing a spec. for only this case. This is especially true for DR.
One option is to specify DR only with end-to-end FEC, and FR and LR are with inner FEC, again subject to demonstrating feasibility.

Hello Chris,
One of the key reason for success of IEEE 802.3 standards as said is the Five Criteria (CSD) and technical feasibility, on the DJ website under Technical Feasibility we have:
https://mentor.ieee.org/802-ec/dcn/22/ec-22-0256-00-ACSD-p802-3dj.pdf
[mentor.ieee.org]

JnTu7-45NyJkjSd-XUbIKVx_motA5KeXzyo51OA$>
At a minimum, address the following items to demonstrate technical
feasibility:
a) Demonstrated system feasibility.
b) Proven similar technology via testing, modeling, simulation, etc.
c) Confidence in reliability.
I am sure at some point in time 200 Gb/s/lane optics will evolve sufficiently where one with confidence and reliable operate such link with
just KP4 FEC.
If for some reason the future TX technology (2nd Gen Sipho/TFLN ??) are ready for deployment in 12-18 months then there is no reason to define PMDs with inner FEC!
We should not hack defining future optics PMDs based on 1st Gen 200G TX optics!
Thanks,

ogX_UVuDPbVcaFfo49NSUuLJnTu7-45NyJkjSd-XUbIKVx_motA5KeX8brtf0p$> very nicely illuminated the disconnect we have in the Task Force on standardizing FEC bypass.
One perspective is that we create new objectives for the same reach, with independent specs. at a lower rate and only end to end FEC. Part of the motivation is that a better TX modulator removes the need for inner FEC. If we adopt this approach, we will have two solutions to the same problem: 1) "bad" TX with inner FEC to make up for the badness, 2) "great" TX without the need for inner FEC. Unfortunately, we have 802.3 Five Criteria to contend with. Distinct Identity clearly states there will be one solution to one problem. If DI doesn't apply here, then we might as well discard it, and going forward only have 802.3 Four Criteria.
FEC bypass should be a lower performance operating mode for the same HW.
This is the basis on which I supported moving forward with it. We have to add a full set of specifications for this mode. This is why the general approach we take for ER is good precedent. The Plug-and-play spec column is at the higher rate with inner FEC. The Engineered spec column is at the lower rate with inner FEC bypassed. An end user can then look at the spec, and for example conclude that for their shorter reach ML clusters, the FEC bypassed mode works just fine. However, the specifications lead to one component type. The industry does not need component type proliferation driven by IEEE. That leads to market fragmentation.
Alternatively, if we really believe that "good" TX technology is available, let's not bother having an inner FEC. Let's forget writing a spec for "bad'
TX and write one spec. for end-to-end FEC only.
Either way, we do not need new objectives. We have single 500m and 2km objectives, each with two modes (Plug-and-play and Engineered) with different levels of performance and operating parameters like rate, or just one Plug-and-play mode without inner FEC.

Coming out of the May plenary meeting, we identified a number of areas where more information is needed or more consensus is needed. The purpose of these ad hoc meetings is allow discussion and contributions on any of these topics. We are holding it joint between the optics and logic teams as a number of these topics relate across both areas.
The goal will be to enable contributors to better refine proposals or provide information relevant to future decisions ahead of the July Plenary meeting. With this being an ad hoc meeting, no decisions can be made but informative straw polls are possible.
At this point, we anticipate topics to potentially include:
* Inner FEC padding and synchronization
* FEC bypass proposal
* Updates on IMDD optical baseline proposals (nothing adopted yet)
* Updates on coherent optical baseline proposals (nothing adopted
yet here too)
But this is not a complete list of potential topics.
If anyone, does wish to make a short presentation in line with above please make a request by the dates noted above. Please email myself, Mark Gustlin (and John D'Ambrosia, please) the following information:
* Name of presenter
* Affiliation of presenter
* Title of presentation
* Length of time requested (this should include time for questions and
answers – presentation time, excluding Q&A, will be at the discretion of the chair, and should be assumed to be limited to 30 min)
* Brief description of topic
The presenter shall e-mail a PDF, soft-copy version of the presentation to me (and John D'Ambrosia, please) in advance of the meeting per above dates..
