Specifications
Finisar’s FDB-1043 CXP Evaluation Board is designed for testing and evaluating the CXP transceiver and CXP Active optical cables. It is compatible with all MSA compliant CXP transceivers.
The board consists of a single 84 pin CXP edge connector and CXP cage assembly. There are forty-eight 50-ohm SMP coaxial connectors (J6 – J53), for the high-speed differential transmitter input, and receiver output signals, and test points with LED’s for monitoring the following CXP and Evaluation Board pins:
MOD STAT (Module Status)
MOD PWR (Module Power) EXTPWR (External Power Supply) PRSL (Module Present)
INTL (Module Interrupt_L and Reset_L) 3.3 V (Module Power Supply)
The I2C pins (SDA, SCL and GND) have tap points available on top of the Evaluation Board. There are also tap points for PRSL and INTL.
The Evaluation Board has LED’s to indicate that the USB port is active.
There is provision for a mini-USB port (J4), so if additional functionality is needed, module functionality can be read over the I2C, using the USB interface.
The FDB-1043 CXP Evaluation Board is powered by a supply voltage of +6V, at 1.75 A from the 100V-240V AC, 50-60 Hz adaptor (this is included with the purchase of the board).
Customer GUI
The GUI provides access to the DOM (Digital Optical Monitoring) module parameters. These parameters monitored, are Device Case Temperature, VCC, TxFault (per channel), RxLOS (per Channel), and Interrupt (for Tx and Rx).
The GUI allows for control and monitoring of Receiver Output, Receiver Pre-emphasis aswell as TxDisable and RxDisable for each of the 12 channels.
