Question:
What’s 11.1 Gb/s testing all about?
Answer:
The emerging telecom rate of 11.1 Gb/s is used in
Optical Packet Networking, also known as Next Generation
Networking & Connection Oriented Ethernet. It is basically
G.709 on 10GbE, the same idea as the 10.71 Gb/s digital
wrapper on 9.95 Gb/s SONET/SDH. A similar approach
is also applied to 10x Fibre Channel to give 11.3
Gb/s. Both require jitter generation testing in the
same way that traditional SONET has always stipulated,
and can easily be measured using the BERTScope DCRj
at any rate to 12.5 Gb/s.
