Appendix A Specifications

ESCON Aggregation Card Specifications

Table A-11 lists SFP optics supported by the 10-port ESCON aggregation card. The optical power

characteristics of the supported SFP optics are listed in the SFP Specifications section.

Note The optical specifications described in this section are only for the individual components and should

not be used to characterize the entire network performance.

Table A-12 lists the maximum added end-to-end latency is from the ESCON aggregation cards

aggregating and separating the client signals.

Note The ESCON latency values have been determined by simulation and are approximate.

Transmitter Minimum Maximum

Transmitter power 5 dBm 10 dBm

Dispersion tolerance 3200 ps/nm

1. OSNR = optical signal-to-noise ratio.

2. Add the proper network-level penalty to the OSNR and/or receive power based on your actual

network topology characteristics, such as dispersion.

3. ps/nm = picoseconds per nanometer.
