Abstract | There is currently much interest in high-speed LANs, with standards for gigabit Ethernet and fiber channel under development. The 62.5-/spl mu/m core multimode fiber (MMF), which is widely used for LANs, has minimum bandwidth specifications of 160 and 500 MHz/spl middot/km at wavelengths of 850 and 1300 nm, respectively. These values translate into link-length limitations of /spl sim/300 and 800 m, respectively, for the gigabit Ethernet rate of 1.25 Gbits/s. The over-filled launch (OFL) bandwidth, for which these values are specified is, however, not the worst-case bandwidth for all launch conditions. In particular, underfilled launches as obtained with current laser transceivers can reduce the link bandwidth to less than half the OFL value. This effect has led recently to specifications of the worst-case link lengths for gigabit Ethernet of 260 and 440 m for 62.5 /spl mu/m MMF operating at 850 and 1300 nm, respectively. This paper demonstrates that the link bandwidth can be restored using an offset launch scheme, so that link lengths of 800 m with gigabit Ethernet are possible. In this work, the effect of the use of laser-based transmitters in MMF links was studied using 13 different representative fiber samples, all of 62.5-/spl mu/m core diameter. Measurements have shown that in eight cases, the link bandwidth with a laser transmitter module is far below the bandwidth for the OFL. To study this effect, detailed impulse response measurements have been carried out with a launch from a single-mode fiber patch cord with variable radial position into the MMF. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
