Abstract
A DS-link is a high-speed point-to-point serial interconnect, original ly developed for interprocessor communication, which can also be appli ed in communication systems. Electrical (twisted pair cable) and fibre -optic technologies for link signal transmission have been studied and their performance in terms of link speed and length has been measured . In order to extend the reach of DS links, a fibre-optic interface em ploying a new line encoding scheme has been designed and characterized . The DS-link interconnect is specified in the IEEE standard 1355. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
