    摘要: A method is provided to lower the overall power consumption of small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceivers. The method includes receiving an indication to operate the SFP transceiver in a low power mode, and setting the SFP transceiver to a low power mode in response to the indication by at least switching off a thermal electric cooler (TEC) that controls a temperature of a laser diode of the SFP transceiver. The proposed method may be implemented whenever a reach is not more than a predetermined distance, for example, 65 kilometers. At such reduced distances, the TEC of the SFP transceiver can be switched off while still guaranteeing link functionality. The instant low power mode has the benefit of reducing the power consumption of the SFP transceiver so that, for example, host platforms with lower power delivery budgets can support the SFP transceiver for at least some applications.

    摘要: A link probe for multimode fibers in optical networks is provided. An optical test probe signal is sent over a multimode fiber of an optical network link and a receiver converts the optical signal into an electronic signal with a trigger generated by the clock recovery section of an EDC (electronic dispersion compensation) unit. The digital signal is processed by a modified IEEE algorithm to determine a TWDP (Transmitter and Waveform Dispersion Penalty) parameter which quantifies the transmission quality of the multimode fiber and link suitability to LRM transmission.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for supporting a plurality of modulation formats using a single transmitter are disclosed. According to one aspect of the present invention, a transmitter arrangement that provides a signal to a modulator that creates an optical data stream from the signal includes an encoder and a switching/filtering arrangement. The encoder has a state that is varied between first and second encoder states. If the state is the first encoder state, the encoder encodes the signal in a format associated with an optical duobinary (ODB) modulation format. Otherwise, the encoder does not encode the signal in the format associated with the ODB modulation format. The switching/filtering arrangement receives the signal from the encoder, and provides the signal to the modulator. If the variable state of the encoder is the first encoder state, the switching/filtering arrangement has a low bandpass configuration. Otherwise, the switching/filtering arrangement has a high bandpass configuration.
