Re: [HSSG] Reach Objectives



Drew,
I assume you could safely omit 100G Base-T, and perhaps 100G Base-LRM ...
Regards,
Steve

I have a simple proposal to save everyone a lot of time. Let’s make the baseline plan to stick with exactly the same number of PMDs with exactly the same reaches as 10GbE. They have all been developed to fit someone’s requirements. We should have a very high hurdle to eliminate any of these or add to them.

The 10km vs. 2km debate occurred in 802.3ae.  It was determined that the solution for 2km was virtually the same as that for 10km; therefore, the task force felt it would be better to select only one of those reaches and 10km was it.  If there is a desire for 2km and 10km reaches in HSSG, then in my humble opinion, those wishing to support will need to bring justification forward as to why the study group should consider possibly increasing the number of PHYs.

 

Cheers,

Brad

John/Petar;

 

I agree datacenter for up to 100m. How about 10GigE LR disctance (10km) or campus 2km discussed earlier?

John,

I believe that the Data Center distances should be 100m and 300m.

[HSSG] Reach Objectives

 

 

 




All,
We have had some conversation on the reflector regarding reach objectives.  Summarizing what has been discussed on the reflector I see the following –
 
Reach Objectives
Long-Haul   --> 100+ km
Metro       --> 10+ km
Data Center --> 50m & 300m
 
Data Center Reach Segregation
Intra-rack
Inter-rack
Horizontal runs
Vertical risers
 
Use this data to identify a single low-cost solution that would address a couple of the reach objectives
 
Other Areas
During the course of the CFI there were individuals who wanted Backplane Applications kept in for consideration, but I have not heard any further input in this area.  Are there still individuals who wish to propose Backplane as an objective?
