Notes:
[1] BER performance was verified with a PRBS31 test pattern in accordance with the IEEE 802.3bm specifications, as part of the product qualification.
[2] Requires optimization of the input equalizer.

For configurations tested with the AOCs please refer to the system level product quality assurance (SLPQA) report.

The transceiver has digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM) functions implemented in firmware version 32.20.124 and higher. The DDM functions are implemented according to SFF-8636 for reading the following key parameters with associated warning and alarm thresholds:

  • Temperature with warning/alarm

  • Supply voltage with warning/alarm

  • Laser bias current with warning/alarm

  • Transmitted optical power with warning/alarm

  • Received optical power with warning/alarm
