DECEMBER 13, 2006 -- Optical Communication Products, Inc. (search for OCP) has announced the availability of its industrial (-40 to +85C) and extended (-5 to 85C) temperature XFP pluggable optical transceivers.
"We are addressing the expanded application requirements of the XFP market by offering additional operating temperature options to our portfolio," said Kirk Bovill, director of marketing. "We are sampling our cost and performance optimized modules to several customers."
The XFP transceiver is designed to provide multi-protocol support for the 10-Gigabit Ethernet, OC-192 SONET/SDH, and 10-Gigabit Fibre Channel to distances of up to 10 km. The multi-rate modules support data rates ranging from 10.7 to 9.95 Gbits/sec. These modules are compatible with ITU-T G.691, ITU-T G.709, and Telcordia GR-253 standards.
The serial electrical interface and DDM functionality are based per the XFP MSA. The DDM functionality enables the end-user to monitor internal temperature, DC supply voltage, transmitter bias current, transmitter output power, and receive optical signal level in the performance of the XFP transceiver. Integrated DDM functionality also incorporates warnings and alarms to monitor these parameters.
