OIF @ OFC/NFOEC 2013 “ENABLING THE NEXT GENERATION OF 100G OPTICAL MODULES

OFC/NFOEC 2013 – March 19-21, 2013 – Anaheim, California

The following companies participated:The Optical Internetworking Forum showcased a demonstration of multi-vendor operation of the 4 x 25G chip-to-module application as defined in the CEI-28G-VSR Implementation Agreement. The OIF’s Physical and Link Layer demonstrations featured for the first time interoperability including both CFP2 and QSFP28 optical modules. This was the OIF’s third interoperability demonstration of 100Gb/s channels and included the largest number of participating component suppliers. Also tested for CEI-28G-VSR interoperability were host ASICs and FPGAs with VSR SERDES, host PCB traces, optical module connectors, and module retimers.
