CSFP question
CSFP based on SFF-8472 and support B0h/B2h in addition to A0h/A2h. (reference: CSFP-33-A4K1DBT) Will this type of transceiver be supported?
The SFF-8472 spec does not mention B0h/B2h. Is that an extension that Delta added? Is there a standard for it? Even if not standard, is there a spec for what resides at those addresses. The existing spec leaves 128 pages available on A2h for vendor specific content (Pages 80h-FFh). Was that not enough for the planned extensions?
To answer the question, I have no plans to support that type of transceiver. I am willing to recommend how to do it, and consult/review on the changes required. Done well, I’ll check it into the optoe github repo. I don’t really want to sign up for the development and testing required to do it right.
