Optical Xcvr Processor
The Optical Xcvr processor collects metrics and statistics of the optical transceivers. The processor contains two output stages:
-
"Interface Stats": Reports two metrics, Temperature (Celsius) and Voltage (Volt)
-
"Lane Stats": Reports three metrics, Tx Power (dBm), Rx Power (dBm), Tx Bias (mA)
For each reported metric, the processor provides the actual measurement as well as the vendor’s threshold limits with a True/False flag indicating if any metric has been crossing any of its thresholds. These thresholds are:
-
High Alarm, High Warning, Low Warning and Low Alarm
For every monitored transceiver the processor will provide meta-data information:
-
Vendor Name, Vendor Part Number, Vendor Serial Number, Media Type and Fiber Type
