GTS1063 and GTS1250 GBIC Test Systems Instruction Manual
1
Getting Started
The GTS1063 and GTS1250 GBIC Test System are tools for GBIC (Gigabit
Interface Converter) designers and users (GTS1250 for gigabit ethernet and the
GTS1063 for fibre channel) that provide a quick, consistent, and reliable
platform for supporting GBIC transceivers in a number of required applications.
The GBIC Test System provides a trap door into which you can plug a standard
GBIC. The front panels with a GBIC installed are shown in Figure 1. A GBIC is
an industry standard module that converts input digital electrical signals (ECL)
to optical amplitude modulation outputs and accepts optical amplitude modula-
tion signals as input and converts them to digital electrical signals (ECL).

The GBIC Test System provides industry standard 1.25 Gb/s (GTS1250) or
1.0625 Gb/s (GTS1063) digital signals to drive your GBIC transmitter (plugged
into the receptacle) for test purposes; you can also drive your GBIC transmitter
using external patterns. The GBIC Test System provides electrical data outputs
and optionally performs serial clock recovery of the received GBIC signal (for
additional information on these and other outputs and inputs see Operating
Basics starting on page 9)
The GBIC Test System provides the following key features:
