9.5.2.3 Receiver signal characteristics
Table 17 defines the compliance point requirements of the signal at the receiver end of a TxRx connection as
measured into the test loads specified in figure 19 and figure 20.

a The value for X1 shall be half the value given for total jitter in table 18. The test or analysis shall include the effects of
a single pole high-pass frequency-weighting function that progressively attenuates jitter at 20 dB/decade below a
frequency of ((bit rate) / 1,667).
b The value for X1 applies at a total jitter probability of 10
between the mask and actual signals is not a valid method for determining compliance with the jitter output
requirements.
c With a measurement bandwidth of 1.5 times the baud rate (i.e. 4.5 GHz for 3.0 Gbps).
d The skew measurement shall be made at the midpoint of the transition with a repeating 0101b pattern on the physical
link. The same stable trigger, coherent to the data stream, shall be used for both the Rx+ and Rx- signals. Skew is
defined as the time difference between the means of the midpoint crossing times of the Rx+ signal and the Rx- signal.
e Near-end crosstalk is the unwanted signal amplitude at receiver terminals DR, CR, and XR coupled from signals and
noise sources other than the desired signal. Refer to SFF-8410.
9.5.2.3.1 Jitter
Table 18 defines the maximum allowable jitter.

a Units are in UI.
b The values for jitter in this section are measured at the average amplitude point.
c Total jitter is the sum of deterministic jitter and random jitter. If the actual deterministic jitter is less than the maximum
specified, then the random jitter may increase as long as the total jitter does not exceed the specified maximum total
jitter.
d Total jitter is specified at a probability of 10
e The deterministic and total values in this table apply to jitter after application of a single pole high-pass frequency-
weighting function that progressively attenuates jitter at 20 dB/decade below a frequency of ((bit rate) / 1 667).
f If total jitter received at any point is less than the maximum allowed, then the jitter distribution of the signals is allowed
to be asymmetric. The total jitter plus the magnitude of the asymmetry shall not exceed the allowed maximum total
jitter. The numerical difference between the average of the peaks with a BER < 10
individual events is the measure of the asymmetry. Jitter peak-to-peak measured < (maximum total jitter -
|Asymmetry|).
