Re: [HSSG] Reach Objectives



Drew suggested a break at 10km reach and 40km reach.

 

 

And while likely Single-Mode solutions that support 300m will likely support 2km just as readily ... so in that case, it will likely depending on the PMD adopted…. But I suspect that a distinct PMD for >300m but <=2km probably is not warranted.

John/Petar;

 

I agree datacenter for up to 100m. How about 10GigE LR disctance (10km) or campus 2km discussed earlier?

John,

I believe that the Data Center distances should be 100m and 300m.

[HSSG] Reach Objectives

 

 

 




All,
We have had some conversation on the reflector regarding reach objectives.  Summarizing what has been discussed on the reflector I see the following –
 
Reach Objectives
Long-Haul   --> 100+ km
Metro       --> 10+ km
Data Center --> 50m & 300m
 
Data Center Reach Segregation
Intra-rack
Inter-rack
Horizontal runs
Vertical risers
 
Use this data to identify a single low-cost solution that would address a couple of the reach objectives
 
Other Areas
During the course of the CFI there were individuals who wanted Backplane Applications kept in for consideration, but I have not heard any further input in this area.  Are there still individuals who wish to propose Backplane as an objective?
