What is the acceptable Rx power in case of SFP/XFP? For example, here are XFP Tx and Rx signals from six FXP's:
1: Laser output power : 1.2920 mW / 1.11 dBm Laser rx power : 0.0285 mW / -15.45 dBm 2: Laser output power : 0.6420 mW / -1.92 dBm Laser rx power : 0.3054 mW / -5.15 dBm 3: Laser output power : 0.4230 mW / -3.74 dBm Laser rx power : 0.5092 mW / -2.93 dBm 4: Laser output power : 0.4180 mW / -3.79 dBm Laser rx power : 0.4208 mW / -3.76 dBm 5: Laser output power : 1.0920 mW / 0.38 dBm Laser rx power : 0.1801 mW / -7.44 dBm 6: Laser output power : 0.7680 mW / -1.15 dBm Laser rx power : 0.3337 mW / -4.77 dBm Is there some sort of pattern? It looks like if the Rx signal is lower, the Tx is higher? And what can one consider a decent Rx laser power level? regards, martin _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
