 10G to 1GE Rate Change SFP Optics (aka Smart 1G)
2 modules:
• SFP-1G-SX: 1km reach over OM3/OM4
• SFP-1G-LH: 10km reach over single-mode
fiber
1G modules can work in 10G/25G ports
• designed to allow platforms without 1G
Media Access Control to link up to 1G
transceivers; works on 10G/25G ports
• provides a standard 10G electrical
interface on the system side
• Contains PHY to convert 10G electrical
interface to 1G optical interface
• In the ingress the module converts physical coding from 8B/10B to 64B/66B encoding
• In the egress the module converts physical coding from 64B/66B to 8B/10B encoding
• Due to higher thermal of these 10G-to-1GE SFPs odd numbered 10G/25G ports can run this optic (the
upper row of SFP+/SFP28 ports) - It means that max 20x 1GE ports can be supported.
• The following port combinations are available:
• 5x 1GE + 35x 10GE or 10x 1GE + 30x 10GE or 15x 1GE + 25x 10GE or 20x 1GE + 20x 10GE

Silicon One Device Lineup (mid-CY22)
8100 vs. 8200 Introduction
• 8200 has HBM for FIB expansion and deep buffers, 8100 does not
• Traffic passing through 8100 should stay in the building/site
• 8100 is for DC fabric (leaf, spine, and small-buffer ToR)
Medium FIB (<1M v4) scale & smaller buffers (100s of microseconds)

• 8200 is for a wide range of roles

SP core, aggregation, and peering
DC leaf/spine/ToR and DCI
Large FIB (~4M v4) and deep buffers (10s of milliseconds)

800G vs. 800 GbE vs. 2x 400 & 8x 100 GbE
• P100 and G100 introduce 100G SerDes and 800G ports
• There is no single-fiber pair 800G in FY23
• 800G ports are currently 8x 100 or 2x 400 (maybe 4x 200)
• Interoperable 800G in next generation ASICs (~2024)
Ethernet Technology Consortium standard first, then IEEE (very similar for initial PMDs)

• Use the terms carefully

“800G” ports means 800G bandwidth, 8x100, 2x 400G, or proprietary 800G
“2x 400 GbE” or “8x 100 GbE” IEEE standards shipping in first generation
“800 GbE” means standardized single-channel (future – don’t use this yet)
8000 Series 800G Ports
• First shipped in mid 2022 – 32x 800G
• Second board will be 36x 800G line card
• First-gen 800G ports are 8x 100 GbE or 2x 400 GbE
2x LC connector to two 400 GbE FR4
MPO12 to two 400 GbE DR4
MPO16 to eight 100 GbE

 Simplicity Always Prevails Reduced Time to Deploy
Simplicity reduces time to deploy
• 60% reduction in internal testing
(qualification) vs previous network design
• 4x improvement for software upgrade
with fabric-style SP architectures

Better Productivity
Simplicity increases productivity
• 48% reduction in troubleshooting efforts vs
previous network design
Segment Routing provides complete control over the
forwarding paths by combining simple network Reduced Capex
Low-End platforms also support SR
instructions. It does not require any additional
• 66% reduction in CapEx by optimizing the
protocol. Indeed, in some cases it removes usage of feature-rich / higher-cost platforms
unnecessary protocols simplifying your network only where it is needed, and using lighter
platforms for simpler access / pre-
