TX Power 2~6.5dBm I am struggling to get this 100gb link up. In the field this link is quoted at 31 miles. The rx levels are -22 and -20 on both sides but I can't get it to link. I take the same optics to the lab and add 20dbm of attenuator to get almost the same rx levels as the field and it will link up.
I have added error-correction encoding reed-solomon per the user guide for links over 40km. So far I have not found a way to change the TX levels in arista, the options are in the CLI but they dont seem to change the outcome. For me this is the first time dealing with 80km optics or 100gb optics over 10km. switch is Arista DCS-7060SX2-48YC6-R https://resource.fs.com/mall/doc/20230531114903y4ljxw.pdf https://www.fs.com/products/115818.html?attribute=29032&id=3462585 On Wed, Jan 24, 2024 at 8:35 AM Colin Stanners <cstann...@gmail.com> wrote: > There should be.
