SFI-4 (OC-192 SERDES-Framer Interface) OIF-PLL-02.0
Proposal for a common electrical interface
between SONET framer and serializer/deserializer
parts for OC-192 interfaces)
System Packet Interface Level 5 (SPI-5):
OC-768 System Interface for
Physical and Link Layer Devices

SPI-5 connects Physical to Link Layer Devices

•
Fabric interface chips (FIC)
Traffic managers
Network processing element (NPE’s)
SPI-5 Signals

The SPI-5 interface uses clock forwarding between

OIF Electrical Standards Benefits

Enables “Best-In-Class” selection of devices that
interoperate
•
•
•
•
•

SERDES
FEC
Framers
Traffic Management
Fabric Interfaces
System vendors can choose their favorite feature
sets and mix and match components as needed
OIF Electrical Standards Benefits
(continued)

With interoperable standards, vendors can
•
•
•
•
Mix and Match “best of breed” components
Minimize the engineering to connect components
Reduce time to market
Enable customization using programmable logic for key
components
System Design Example

A systems vendor wanting to build an OC-768
switch with OIF standards can select:
A customized traffic manager from FPGA Vendor X
• A framer from ASSP vendor Y
• A SERDES module from Optical Vendor Z
FPGA Vendor X

Optical
Vendor Z
ASSP
Vendor Y
OIF Electrical Standards Silicon Solutions





A variety of Silicon implementation solutions are
available, including:
ASSP + FPGA
ASIC
System vendors do not get locked in to a
proprietary solution
OIF-compliant chips interoperate effectively to
enable “best of breed” system solutions
