Long Reach OC-12 Interface (29H-U OLIU)
10
■
Optical Specification
The distributed feedback laser supplies a NRZ-coded signal. For direct
optical loopbacks, at least 10 dB of optical attenuation is needed for the
29H-U.
The 29H-U OLIU long reach OC-12 interface supports span lengths up to
96 km, assuming 0.25 dB/km single-mode fiber (including splices) and the
span engineering rules outlined in Table 10-16. Transmit and receive
powers are referenced to points S and R as shown in Figure 10-2.
Table 10-15 and Table 10-16 provide detailed specifications and link budget
information for the 29H-U OLIU. Note that the 29H-U OLIU is not specified
to operate over multimode fiber.
■
Alarm Thresholding
The following parameters are monitored at the OC-12 interface.
— Loss of signal (LOS)
— Loss of frame (LOF)
— Loss of pointer (LOP)
— Line AIS
— B2 thresholding signal fail
— B2 thresholding signal degrade. (B2 signal degrade thresholds are
user settable in the range from 10
-5
to 10
-9
BER.)
