AFBR-720XPDZ 10GbE XFP 850 nm 10Gbps Optical Transceiver
The 850 nm XFP transceiver is a high performance, cost effective module for serial optical data communications applications specified for signal rates of 9.9 Gb/s 10.5 Gb/s. It is compliant tRev 4.5. The module is designed for multi mode fiber and operates at a nominal wavelength of 850 nm. The transmitter section incorpo¬rates Avago Technologies’ 850 nm Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL). The receiver section uses Technologies’ MOVPE grown planar SEDET photo¬detector for low dark current and excellent responsivity. Integrated Tx and Rx signal conditioners provide high jitter-tolerance for full XFI compliance. The internally ac coupled high speed serial I/O simplifies interfacing external circuitry. The electrical interface is made using an industry standard 0.8 mm pitch 30-pin right angle connector. Optical connection is made via the duplex LC connector.
The product also offers digital diagnostics using 2-wire serial interface defined in XFP MSA. The product provides real time temperature (module and laser), sup¬ply voltage, laser bias current, laser average output power and received input power. The digital diagnostic interface also adds the ability to disable transmitter (TX_DIS), power down module, monitor for module faults and monitor for Receiver Loss of Signal (RX_LOS). Transmitter disable, interrupt, power down/reset, receiver loss of sig¬nal and module not ready are also hard wired pins on the 30-pin right angle connector.
