Optical Port Specifications

Fibre Channel interfaces of a SilkWorm 2400 system equipped with an optical port
interface uses a shortwave (780 to 850 nm.) or long wavelength (1270 to 1350 nm) laser
transmitter. The laser complies with 21 CFR(J) Class 1 laser safety requirements. It uses
Non-Open Fibre Control (OFC) Optical GBICs in the switch circuit. Safe Class 1
operation is guaranteed by limiting optical power emitted by the port, thereby
eliminating the need for physical shutters. The optical GBIC uses the duplex-SC
connector scheme.

Copper GBIC Module

The Copper (CU) GBIC module is based on the High-Speed Serial Data Connection
(HSSDC) interface standards. The GBIC provides a female HSSDC connector. Copper
cables up to 13 meters have currently been qualified, thereby supporting ANSI X3.230
FC-PH intra-cabinet requirements. Standard cables with HSSDC-to-DB9 male
connectors are also available.
