My guess is that he was talking about the difference between a 100gbit/sec stream of ethernet frames with no error correction, and a 112gbit/sec (or so, depending on scheme) stream of transport with FEC (Forward Error Correction - which is essentially just cramming extra bits in there incase the

Open Line Systems can get you to 80K with a 100G DWDM Optic (PAM4) - I've used a lot of SmartOptics DCP-M40 shelves for this purpose. They also have transponders that allow you to go from a QSFP28 to CFP to do coherent 100G out to 120Km using the DCP-M40, without a need for regen or extra amps in

Does this have to be Ethernet? You could look into line gear with coherent optics. IIRC, they have built-in chromatic dispersion compensation, and depending on the card, would include amplification. On Fri, Sep 24, 2021 at 1:40 PM Randy Carpenter wrote: > > How is everyone accomplishing 100GbE a

Look into EDFA amplifier systems. They work over a range of bands and are pretty affordable. They can carry regular 1310nm as well as C-Band. Although if you are carrying C-band you may have to compensate for chromatic dispersion. Happy to help, I love this stuff! On Fri, Sep 24, 2021 at 4:39 PM
