Re: [802.3_MAINT] Follow up on proposed Comment to add distance specification for 10GBASE-S over OM4 media



Matt etal,
 
I had our guys look at the VCSELs we have purchased on the open market used in our test facilities; there are 70 transceivers from 6 different manufacturers. 78% of the spectral widths are less than 0.35. The triple trade-off numbers are as follows:
 
1. The average spectral width is 0.286

2. The average wavelength is 849.4; worst case 845.7

3. The average OMA power is -1.24; worst case -2.42

Using these numbers in the IEEE model yields 5.2 dB of margin at 400m.

Using these numbers in the IEEE model yields 3.3 dB of margin at 550m.

The more I look at this, I think we are being REALLY, REALLY conservative in IEEE, maybe too much so; here is the distribution of spectral width:

Subject: [802.3_MAINT] Follow up on proposed Comment to add distance specification for 10GBASE-S over OM4 media

Hello to the now very active IEEE Maintenance reflector!

 

As I mentioned during my presentation at the IEEE plenary in July I would like to schedule a few calls to follow up on the questions/comments raised during the meeting. (see http://www.ieee802.org/3/maint/public/traverso_1_0711.pdf)

 

My goal for these calls per the discussion on the floor is to try to build more confidence in the proposed reach value.  I believe that there was broad consensus at the meeting that (a) goal of specifying value is worthwhile,(b) theoretical analysis was sound.  I hope to confirm my perception at the first call & discuss further justification for 400m reach.

 

My intention is to submit a comment by the comment deadline of Aug 26th.

 

Call timing:

Wednesday Aug 10th, 10 – 11:30 am PT

Wednesday Aug 17th , 10 – 11:30 am PT
