Serial Configuration Interface
The SFP 2‐wire serial interface (MOD_DEF1/MOD_DEF2) provides also digital diagnostic monitoring via the
SERIAL CONFIG INTERFACE. The serial interface uses the 2‐wire serial EEPROM protocol defined for the ATMEL
AT24C02 family component. The memory is organized as a series of 8‐bit data words that can be addressed
individually or sequentially. The 2‐wire serial bus address 1010001X (A2h) is used for SERIAL CONFIG
INTERFACE access.

The table below defines the information structures that are obtained from the SFP Transceiver via the SERIAL
CONFIG INTERFACE.
