[802.3_100GCU] Recommended channels to use



folks,

At the June 7 channel model consensus group discussion i agreed to provide recommended channels to use for testing potential channel evaluation methods. Enclosed is a csv file with my recommendations for NRZ channels intended to work without FEC. A recommended set for PAM4 will be following at a later date.

  In the file i list 10 channels,

  2 which qikSN says are definitely bad, even with FEC,
    one a long channel, the other short;

  6 which qikSN says are near the limit without FEC, some
    slightly above the limit, some slightly below.

  2 which qikSN say are definitely good both moderately long.

Two of the channels, which i call FCI_Long4, and FCI_short_7 have questionable data at 50MHz, the lowest available frequency. I recommend that anyone trying to use them delete or correct the 50MHz data.

                      charles
