Colleagues,
I am preparing an updated draft of the 800 GbE electrical interfaces and PMDs baseline proposal for 100G/lane (specifically 53.125 GBd/lane) for consideration by the Task Force.
The feedback that I captured from February was as follows:
- Remove the 1.6TbE proposal. More discussion on the 1.6TbE direction is needed at the TF level.
- Clarify the proposed signaling rate to be 106.25 Gbps/lane
Based on the feedback, I made the following changes to the presentation:
- Added a few slides to the beginning to level-set the audience and explicitly call out 106.25 Gbps/lane.
- Remove the 1.6TbE slides
Please let me know if you have any other feedback or would like to have an discussion prior to the 15 March meeting.
With regards,
-Kent
