OIF at SUPERCOMM 2003
June 3 - 5
World Georgia Congress Center,
Atlanta, GA, USA.
OIF Interoperability Demonstration
Based on the success of the OFC Interoperability Demonstration, the OIF held a second Physical & Link Layer Interoperability Demo at SUPERCOMM 2003.
The SUPERDemo featured live demonstrations offering a visual representation of dynamic N-way interoperability of SPI-4.2, SFI-4 and tunable lasers among OIF member companies.
The OIF also introduced its new project, CEI, with demonstrations of electrical interfaces with signaling rates of 6+ and 11+ GBaud for chip to chip, chip to optical module and electrical backplane applications.
