The TP1/TP1a and TP4/TP4a electrical specifications will enable up to 224G full linear optical modules for Linear Pluggable Optics (LPO), co-packaged optics (CPO) and Near Package Optics (NPO), supporting next-generation low power, low cost and low latency applications. Avago Technologies Petar Pepeljugoski IBM Ali Ghiasi Broadcom. The assumption is that TP1 is equivalent to B on the host testing and B' on the module testing and TP4 is equivalent to C on the host C' on the module. There are two approaches that may be reused in existing IEEE 802. 3 standard - Annex 93A for COM and TDECQ approach. Module TX FIR is set with a TP4 far-end reference channel. Whether you are creating a 100-Gbps or 400-Gbps, small form-factor pluggable (SFP) module, SFP+ transceiver, XFP module, CFP, X2/XENPAK module. A module compliance board (MCB) is a breakout fixture into which a transceiver module can be plugged to provide access to the electrical input and output signals (TP1, TP4 compliance test points) of the module. The above block diagram shows relevant elements and interfaces for a link between two PMAs.
