Introduction FRM220-10G-SXX is a 3-port 3R optical regeneration device with clock data recovery (CDR). The "3R" consists of Re-amplification, Re-shaping and Re-timing. The transponder card converts a data signal to the correct wavelength for transmission on a specific channel by supporting XFP, and/or SFP+ optics on both line side and client side interfaces.

2. Rack management - When placed in NMC managed rack, all other settings are overridden by the NMC management. 3. Due to their power requirements and high heat dissipation, CTC Union recommends placing no more than 10 cards in CH20 rack with empty space between each card.

Operation Modes FRM220-10G-SXX is constructed with three ports and is programmable to send bi-direction data between any two ports as follows: Manual Primary – data is routed between the line side SFP+ and the primary XFP. Use this mode for SFP+ to XFP conversion.

Loop Back Testing (LBT) The loop back capability of FRM220-10G-SXX is useful for debugging a dysfunctional link, or when commissioning a site. In loopback mode, the signal is routed into the CDR (Clock Data Recovery) circuitry and then routed back to the signal source. FRM220-10G-SXX model features loop back for each of the three fiber ports, Line, Primary and Secondary.
Page 13
The rate setting is the only setting required. For normal operation, ensure that no Loop Back is configured. Since FRM220-10G-SXX 3R transponder has a clock recovery function, it is able to repeat indefinitely and still maintain data integrity.

CWDM Transponder FRM220-10G-SXX functions primarily as a repeater or a media converter. As a repeater for long-haul applications, the signal is fully regenerated at the trunk. Clock Data Recovery (CDR) helps in reshaping, retiming, and regenerating (3R) the output signal at a number of pre-assigned frequencies for different protocols.

Upgrading The FRM220-10G-SXX card may be firmware upgraded when it is placed in the FRM220 with NMC management card. The user may use a local console connection to the NMC, a remote Telnet (IP) connection, or a Web based (HTTP) connection with any available browser. The NMC communicates to all cards through a serial TTL control bus.

About XFP/SFP+ Units The FRM220-10G-SXX accepts any XFP or SFP+ unit that complies with the MSA standard. It will also accept “multiple voltage” XFPs and should not be a problem for any new XFP. Follow all ESD precautions when handling the card and pluggable modules.
