9.2.1 Front-Port Jitter Cleaning Applications

The DS250DF210 has strong equalization capabilities that allow it to equalize insertion loss, reduce jitter, and extend the reach of front-port interfaces. A single DS250DF210 can be used to support the egress and ingress channel of a 25GbE port. Similarly, two DS250DF210 devices can be used to support a 50GbE (2x25G) port, one DS250DF210 for the two egress channels and another DS250DF210 for the two ingress channels.

For applications which require IEEE802.3 100GBASE-CR4 or 25GBASE-CR auto-negotiation and link training, a linear repeater device such as the DS280BR810 (or similar) is recommended.

Figure 16 illustrates this configuration, and Figure 17 shows an example simplified schematic for a typical front-port application.
