  2. S O N E T 1972 The first Electro optical specifications and synchronization protocol are published by an industry consortium called :SynchronousOptical NETwork or SONET.Bandwidth 3.125 Mbit/s 1985SONET was adapted by the ANSI standardsbody T1 X1 as Synchronous Fibre Optics Network for Digital communications. 1986 CCITT ( now ITU ) joined the movement. Implemented Optical Level Europe Electrical Line Rate Payload Overhead H Equivalent ITU Level (Mbps) (Mbps) (Mbps) 1989 OC - 1 --- STS - 1 51.840 50.112 1.728 --- 1992 OC - 3 SDH1 STS - 3 155.520 150.336 5.184 STM- 1 1995 OC - 12 SDH4 STS - 12 622.080 601.344 20.736 STM- 4 1999 OC - 48 SDH16 STS - 48 2488.320 2405.376 82.944 STM- 16 2002 OC-192 SDH48 STS-192 9953.280 9621.504 331.776 STM- 64 OC-768 SDH192 STS-768 39613.120 39486.016 1327.064 STM-256

  3. Standards SONET is a multitude of standards: It defines the Physical transfer and the protocols; ATM, POS, It defines hardware Interfaces at different levels; Utopia, XSBI, XAUI, etc. It defines the Bandwidth running up with a factor 4; SONET/SDH It defines Wavelength for DWDM. It defines switching layers as proposed by ISO; Level 2 VLAN DA SA Level 3 IP Addresses Level 4 Sessions Level 5-7 URLs, H.323 information etc. It defines routing and switching strategies such that different manufacturers stay compatible without limiting design freedom.

  6. DWDM DWDM Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing

  7. Graded Index Reflex Plate Or Holographic Diffraction Plate Old Technology: but still much used By heating the laser the reflecting resonance cavity is expanded which changes the frequency. Problem: Stability Arrayed Wavelength Gratins = ¼  Selection Platealso called “Phase Array” or “Phaser Plate” Modern Technology: Using MEMS technology the mirror is moved by electro static forces, and as such expands the lasing cavity.The laser can be tuned with a DC voltage. What is Wavelength Multiplexing Sending Multiple colors ( wavelength ) over a single fiber How is it done ( simplified )

  8. DWDM Input Wave-Guides Field Lens with ¼  interference Single Color outputs Field Lens How the AWG works

  9. Fibers are still a medium with a lot of critical parameters, such that ongoing research is an important factor to limit theme to a minimum by choosing materials and doping, and optimise production methods. Some Physical Problems Are: Optical Return Loss:Change of material and interconnecting surfaces both reflect small parts of light, As different material may have a different index ( transfer speed ) a frequency shift is not excluded that may provoke cross-talk. Chromatic Dispersion: The group delay per Unit Wavelength is not equal and gives different travel speeds to the channels. Chromatic Dispersion accumulates with distance. Polarization Mode Dispersion: Simplified; Horizontal and Vertical polarization do not travel at the same speed which occasions pulse broadening. It is an unstable stochastic process that is due to all kind of stress on the fiber. It gets more sensitive at higher bit rates . Second Order Polarization Mode Dispersion: A dispersion of the polarization that is occasioned by chromatic Dispersion, only if there is Polarization Mode Dispersion. It is mainly a problem with very long distances. Brillouin Backscattering: Backwards reflexions from connectors and strong bends create in the laser an acoustic wave that travels in the fiber and occasions optical disturbances. The Doppler effect is source of frequency shift and increases the risk of cross talk or cross modulation. Solutions: Much progress is made on connectors and on the fibers itself, better glass ( plastic ) material, sophisticated doping and cladding, and stress limiting production methods have limited most of this problems to a minimum. Problems with DWDM Fibers

  10. DWDM - Equipment Capacity is up to 2048 and more Channels. Common in the Communication Industry is 1024 Each color with its modulation logic and its stabilization electronics is a plug in unit Take 25 Units in a crate, and 10 crates in a rack = 4 racks Transmitters and 4 racks Receivers Is DWDM technology a good solution for CERN To Expensive To Complicated To Much Maintenance To Much Place CERN can solve its internal future data transport problems with bandwidth extension to 10 Gbit/s and higher using one stream per Fiber. For external connections it is up to the Service Provider but 10GE in POS mode or 10GE in Native mode seems a good solution to communicate physics data to outside institutes and to handle GRID Data distribution.

  11. DWDM and some Simple Economic Aspects Up to 1990 traffic was mainly some e-mail and remote maintenance. 1990 The web was born incrementing traffic. Fiber connections ware view, single stream and at best OC12/SDH4 at + 622 Mbit/s. 1995 – 2000 Enormous investments ware made in larger cables (1000 fibers and more). Cable laying ships ware build, and cables pulled all calculated at Single stream traffic. 1998 and later: bandwidth goes up OC48/SDH16 at 2.5 Gbit/s and even to OC192/SDH48 with 10 Gbit/s and DWDM and multiplies the capacity by 1000 such that a 100 fiber cable now moves 1 000 000 streams at 10 Gbit/s. Overcapacity let prices fall and communication companies go bankrupt on their enormous investments.

  12. CALIENT MIRRORS ARE POSITIONED BY ANALOG VOLTAGES THE LIGHT BEAM HAS TO BE TARGETED AT A SINGLE MODE FIBER OF A VIEW MICRONS. Conclusion: EVEN IF INTEGRATED THIS WAY OF SWITCHING IS VERY SENSITIVE TO THE STEERING VOLTAGE AND TO TEMPERATURE Optical Switching LUCENT Can it be done more Reliable ?

  13. OMM Switching Speed + 12 msec. More Stable Optical Routing Switches If there is a On/Off Mechanism we are back to a Binary Function.

  14. 128 wave-guides Solid State Optical Switch In Gallium Arsenid (GaAs) optical properties can be influenced by an electric field. The electrical influenced refraction index delays the passing light. A voltage gradient in multiple waveguides turns the wavefront ( ¼ λ interference ) and with it the direction of the output beam. The result is an “Optical Phase Array” or “Beam Deflector” Can be produced with Semiconductor manufacturing technology, no moving parts. Switching speed 20 to 30 nsec. Fast enough to do IP routing of 10 Gbit/s and 40 Gbit/s networks. Format independence gives high scalability. Large switches possible ( 64 X 64 ) demonstrated. * According to CHIARO Networks

Problems with CWDM or WDWM Chromatic Dispersion travel speed in a fiber is not equal for all colors Wavelength Drift Transmitter Data drifts out of the filter slot and can not be received Wavelength Drift The receiver filter drifts and does not select the correct wavelength Wavelength Drift wavelength comes in the region where couples to other channels ( cross-talk ) Chromatic Dispersion Source of limited distance covered, and stops use of fiber amplifiers Conclusion 10 GE will only be popular if a cheap and reliable single fiber single wavelength solution is available

The previous High Speed Way to move Ethernet packets over SONET/SDH used Byte Stuffing at 2.5 MByte/s for OC48/SDH16 in POS mode. It is also used in OC192/SDH48 An extension on the 10GE standard to be accepted by ANSI and UCI will transfer 10GE Packets directly over OC192/SDH48. The difference in bandwidth will be covered with by inserting IDLE’s at regular distances in the Ethernet data stream.

Up to 10:1 price advantage in upfront costs Up to 5:1 advantage in bandwidth provisioning expenses Up to 5:1 advantage in annual maintenance Provides bandwidth on demand without costly truck rolls Economics of 10 GE Ethernetoffers a superior price/performance and TCO over alternative technologies (SONET/ATM) SONET Ethernet

  28. Products Products start to arrive on the market now, mostly “Prove of Concept” commercially available are view. Silicon: Infineon, Sierra, Agilenta, Broadband and some small development houses are all advertising NIC’s and SERDES circuits, sometimes for 10 GHz/s and for 40 GHz/s. No general interfaces NIC’s are around and will not be before PCI-X2 is available Switches and routers are announced. The most common are line concentrators with 10 X GE to 1X 10GE 10GE Alliance makes a large effort by organizing compatibility workshops with all manufacturers concerned. It also does a general marketing job to show products and its compatibility efforts ( plug Fest ) on trade shows.

  30. VHDL using standard twisted telephone wire is developing rapidly to faster and higher reliability with new technology standards ( moving from “Discreet Multitone Modulation” to “Quadrature Amplitude Modulation” ) New VHDL technology will such allow a bandwidth good enough for 10/100 Base T Ethernet The Metropolitan Network will move to double arbitrated ring structures ( 802.17 Resilient Packet Ring ) And 802.17 introduces “Virtual Concatenation” for efficient packing of non corresponding frame sizes Example: SONET STS 1 = 51.84 Mb/s, STS 3 = 155.52 Mb/s. Standard: With RPR Ethernet 100 Base T needs STS 3 and wastes 55.52 Mb/s Ethernet 100 Base T can use STS1 and wastes 3.6 Mb/s RESULT: Your future Internet connection will be cheaper for the Service provider, and such for the user, to use the same old phone line that brings 10/100 Base T Ethernet to the end user. And the Last Mile

  32. Trans-Atlantic Connections 10 GE and the GRID We can now foresee that in the near Future Grid communications will move to 10 GE Ethernet. But this depends if there are sufficient good quality Single Mode Fiber available And if Service Providers are ready To Handle Gigabit Ethernet.

  34. 10 GE Conclusions 10GE is Ethernet, the name everybody knows. Also the manager that decides the IT Budget. Two standards for data transfer: 4 parallel streams using WWDM and a single stream. WWDM is difficult to stabilize, and can not easily be coupled to telecommunication channels. The Single Stream version connects the Local Network, to the Metropolitan Network and to the Wide Area Network within one protocol environment. Using PPP encapsulation in POS mode every standard communication channel can be used immediately, including DWDM channels 10GE Silicon with 110 nm and 90 nm technology is able to handle the bandwidth and will come at reasonable prices. The optical parts will stay high price, even if moved to VCSEL’s The small 1500 Byte frames will stay a handicap in local data handling and RDMA will only solve half of the problem. TOE engines are necessary, but some transfer latency stays We will see 10GE at CERN, as backbone for the network, as backbone in the computer-center and as a data-link between LHC experiments and the central computing facilities.
