Re: [802.3_100GNGOPTX] 802.3_100GNGOPTX : 'Cost power and size differences of proposed MMF PMDs' - seeking supporters/detractors



Jonathan,

 

Thanks for forwarding the presentation.

 

There is one aspect that does concern me as I reviewed the material and that is it is only making a comparison of unretimed vs. retimed implementations. As far as my understanding of a PMD and its PMD service interface, there are no clock and data recovery circuits (see Annex 86A). Therefore, I think the presentation has not really focus on the differences that could be specified relative to the PMDs.

 

I’m not an optics expert, so please feel to correct my following interpretation/thought-line. It would seem to me that the Task Force could specify different optical power requirements (one for 20m and another for 100m) that could be controlled via the management interface. The 100m power level would be the default, and the 20m power level could be selected by either management software or the end user. Would this scenario offer any potential power savings?

 

Thanks,
Brad

Dear all,

Following a couple of comments, I’ve revised the slides slightly to be more clear that those listed as supporters (or detractors) are supporting the conclusions, rather than necessarily 100% agreeing with the specific details in the presentation .  Obviously power estimates vary somewhat between companies.  I’ve moved the supporters and detractors lists to the end of the presentation and labeled them as ‘supporting the conclusions’ and ‘not supporting the conclusions’ .

 

Best wishes

jonathan

Subject: 802.3_100GNGOPTX : 'Cost power and size differences of proposed MMF PMDs' - seeking supporters/detractors

 

Dear all ,

Ryan and I are seeking  supporters and detractors for the attached joint presentation:

“Cost, power, size differences of proposed MMF PMDs: 20 m reach un-retimed vs 100 m reach retimed baseline”, which  will be submitted for to the May meeting of 802.3bm in Victoria, BC.

 

The slides conclude that

“• By about the same time 802.3bm is technically stable (H2 2014) there will be no significant power, cost, or size, advantage to be gained from an un-retimed short reach PMD.

– A 20 m reach un-retimed PMD would not meet the criteria for distinct identity.

• The 20 m reach objective is met by the 100 m reach PMD, a separate 20 m PMD is not required”

 

If you agree (or disagree) with the presentation and wish to be listed as a supporter (or detractor) of the presentation, please let me know by e-mailing me.

 

Thanks !

Best wishes

jonathan
