IXF30025 - 2.5Gbps Digital Wrapper The IXF30025 is a fully compliant G.709 digital wrapper device that covers most Optical Transport Network (OTN) applications on a single chip. Based on the digital signal wrapping technique defined by ITU-T G.709, the IXF30025 provides all functions required for an optical network transmission system, including transmission protection based on Forward Error Correction (FEC). With integrated FEC error statistics and overhead processing facilities, the IXF30025 is a key component in wrapper-based transparent operation, administration, maintenance and provisioning of optical networks. The IXF30025 is built on technology developed for the IXF30005, which was the first 10Gbps digital wrapper in the market. Supporting both asynchronous and synchronous mapping schemes, the IXF30025 provides special features for SONET/SDH data streams, such as a Performance Monitor (PM) and post processor. Acting as a direct pin and software compatible drop-in replacement for the IXF30001 and IXF30003 (FEC100), the IXF30025 supports IXF30001 and IXF30003 G.975 framing, as well as ITU-T G.709. The IXF30025 may be operated as a gateway between existing IXF30001- or IXF30003-based systems and ITU-T G.709-compliant equipment. Dual Data Paths The IXF30025 contains two completely separate signal paths (north and south) that are designed to operate as receiver and transmitter for single chip transponder applications. Using integrated bridges between both paths, the IXF30025 provides APS support and may also be configured as a regenerator. The IXF30025 supports both synchronous and asynchronous mapping of STM 16 streams for SDH payload data, and an integrated, non-intrusive PM in the south path (the FEC transmitter) can be used to check incoming payload signal quality. On the north path (the FEC receiver), an integrated SOH processor allows extraction of up to two configurable bytes. In the event of severe transmission error, such as the loss of signal or wrapper frame synchronization, received SONET/SDH data may be replaced by AIS frames.

    • Features and Benefits
    Flexible 2.5Gbps digital wrapper for OTN with ITU-T G.709 compliance, including FEC - Versatile enough to use in many locations and applications within an OTN, designed for current as well as future applications. Wide coverage of OTN overhead functions implemented in hardware - Reduces costs, space, power and software development time OC-48/STM 16 client processing related to OTN functions and applications - Compliance with existing standards reduces development time Drop-in replacement for IXF30001 or IXF30003 (FEC100). Identical footprint and physical characteristics - Eases migration pass and reuses all 155/167MHzPCB RF qualification data. Allows bridging between FEC100-based systems and OTN. Low power consumption - Eases mechanical systems design and power management OC-48/STM 16 SONET/SDH performance monitor (B1, B2, J0, general purpose) and post processor (AIS insertion) - No additional performance monitor device required, basic SDH functionality downstream. Bidirectional device for single chip transponder operation (synchronous or asynchronous) - Compact system design, reduced cost, lower power consumption, different clocking schemes from which to choose. OIF-compliant LVDS Inputs/Outputs - Allows use of SERDES components provided by 3rd party vendors.
