[802.3_DWDM] Comment #52 - Rate adaptation 400GBASE-ZR - 400ZR



Hi,

 

This is my proposed response to Adee’s comment #52:

 

“Change:

The 257-bit encoded data is a logically serial stream at a rate of 401.542892 Gb/s ± 100 ppm. The Payload area of the 400GBASE-ZR frame has a capacity of 402.489753 Gb/s ± 20 ppm.

 

To:

The 257-bit encoded data is a logically serial stream at a rate of 401.5625 Gb/s ± 100 ppm. Idle blocks are removed from the 257-bit encoded data at a rate of 163832/163840 before the 257-bit encoded data is mapped to the payload area of the 400GBASE-ZR frame. The payload area of the 400GBASE-ZR frame has a capacity of 402.489753 Gb/s ± 20 ppm.

 

Add to the end of clause 155.2.6.8 GMP de-mapping: Idle blocks are added to the 257-bit encoded data at a rate of 163840/163832.”

 

This change will enable 400GBASE-ZR to be interoperable with OIF 400ZR. If we do not implement this change, then then when connecting a 400GBASE-ZR to a 400ZR the rate of the 400ZR GAUI interface may be off by +149ppm.

 

My presentation with the details of this issue can be found in: https://www.ieee802.org/3/cw/public/23_06/bruckman_3cw_01a_2306.pdf

 

Please let us know your opinion.

 

Best regards,

Leon
