Description
The ZL60301 is a v ery hig h-speed transc eiver fo r p arallel fi ber applications . This transce iver performs E/O and O/E
conversions for data transmission over multimode fiber ribbon.
The transmit section converts parallel electrical input signals via a laser driver and a VCSEL array into parallel
optical output signals at a wavelength of 850 nm.
The receive section converts parallel optical input signals via a PIN photodiode array and a transimpedance and
limiting amplifier, into electrical output signals.
The module is fitted with a pluggable industry-st andard MegArray® BGA connector. This provid es ease of a ssembly
on the host board and enables provisioning of bandwidth on demand.

VCCA and VCCB Rx can be connected to the same power supply. However, to insure maximum receiver sensitivity
and minimize the impact of noise from the power supply, it is recommended to keep the power supplies separate
and to use the recommended power supply filtering network on VCCA Rx, see Figure 2.
Thermal Characteristics
There are three options for heat sinks depending on the cooling needs. They are:
1. Direct application without any attached external heat sink
2. Use a generic external heat sink specified by Zarlink
3. Use a customer designed external heat sink
In Figure 10 and Figure 11, the temperature rise and thermal resist ance as a function of air velocity (fre e air velocity
at the top of the module) is shown for option 1 and 2. The thermal resistance is defined as the temperature
difference between the case temperature and ambient flowing air divided by the total heat dissipation of the
module.
Improved thermal properties can be achieved by using a larger heat sink especially if more height is available
(option 3). For this option, a more detailed discussion with Zarlink is recommended regarding heat sink design
attachment materials.

The electromagnetic immunity is tested without a front panel or enclosure. The module specification is maintained
with an applied field of 10 V/m for frequencies between 10 kHz and 10 GHz, according to IEC 61000 43 and GR
1089CORE.
Handling instructions
Cleaning the Optical Interface
A protective connector plug is supplied with each module. This plug should remain in place whenever a fiber cable
is not inserted. This will keep the optical port free from dust or other contaminants, which may potentially degrade
the optical signal. Before reattaching the connector plug to the module, visually inspect the plug and remove any
contamination. If the module’s optical port becomes contaminated, it can be cleaned with high-pressure nitrogen
(the use of fluids, or physical contact, is not advised due to potential for damage).
Before a fiber cable connector is attached to the module, it is recommended to clean the fiber cable connector
using an optical co nnector cleane r, or accordin g to the c able ma nufacturer's instructions . It is also reco mmende d to
clean the optical port of the module with high-pressure nitrogen.
Connectors
For optimum performance, it is recommended that the number of insertions is limited to 50 for the electrical
MegArray connector and 200 for the optical MPO/MTP connector.
ESD handling
When handling the modules, precautions for ESD sensitive devices should be taken. These include use of ESD
protected work areas with wrist straps, controlled work-benches, floors etc.

Link Reach
The following table lists the minimum reach distance of the pluggable parallel fiber optic transceiver for different
multi-mode fiber (MMF) types and bandwidths assuming worst case parameters. Each case allows for a maximum
of 2 dB per channel connec tion loss for patch cables and other connectors.
Link Model Parameters
The link reaches above have been calculated using the following link model parameters and Gigabit Ethernet link
model version 2.3.5 (filename: 5pmd047.xls).
