Xilinx Interoperability Demonstration
Optical Internetworking Forum (OIF) Booth #360
- As part of OIF Interoperability 2013 – Enabling the Next-Generation of 100G Architectures, Xilinx will demonstrate interoperability between its 28.05 Gbps capable (GTZ) transceiver and a Finisar CFP2 optical module running at 27.95 Gbps. The Virtex®-7 H580T FPGA interoperating with the Finisar optical module following the OIF CEI-28G-VSR implementation agreement, illustrates real-world integration of 100G networking systems.
OIF Interoperability 2013
OIF member companies will unite under the banner of the Optical Internetworking Forum to showcase multi-vendor participation in OIF Interoperability 2013 – Enabling the Next-Generation of 100G Architectures. The OIF’s Physical and Link Layer demonstration addresses multiple technologies including CEI-28G-VSR chip-to-module interfaces for CFP2 and QSFP28 pluggable module form factors, CEI-25G-LR backplane applications and module thermal specifications that enable 100G capabilities.
A public demonstration of the event will be on display September 23-25, 2013 at ECOC in London. OIF Booth #360. Additional information can be found at http://www.oiforum.com/public/OIF_Interoperability_2013.html
