Xpak 10GBE General Description and Applications
The
Xpak 10GBE/FC (TRP10GVP2027/TRP10GVP2127) is a highly integrated, serial optical
transponder module for highspeed data transmission
applications. The module is fully compliant to
IEEE 802.3ae standard for Ethernet and the
10GFC Rev. 4
Fiber Channel standard, making it ideally suited for 10 GbE datacom and
storage area network (SAN/NAS).
Designed for short range distances the transponder module comprises a transmitter with a vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL), a receiver with a PIN photodiode and a XAUI-Attachment Interface, an integrated Coder/Decoder and multiplexer/demultiplexer (SERDES: Serializer/ Deserializer).
The transponder operates within a wide temperature range of 0°C to +70 °C and offers optimum heat dissipation and excellent electromagnetic shielding which enables high port densities for
10 GbE systems. A 70 pin electrical connector assures a
X2 and
XENPAK MSA compliant connectivity.
