✦ Synopsis

The Optical Internetworking Forum (OIF) has adopted two Very Short Reach (VSR) OC-192 interface Implementation Agreements, intended to cut the cost of OC-192/STM-64 links between equipment in a single central office:

• OIF-VSR-O3.0 (VSR-3) (°Very Short Reach (VSR) 0C-192 Four Fiber Interface Based on Parallel Optics") uses four fibres each way at 2.5 Gb/s on a single 12-fibre Multimode ribbon using 850 nm VCSELs;
