Slide 16: Conclusions
Conclusions • Two main drivers in extending reach are skew and mating zone reflections • Skew, differential insertion loss, and mode conversion are interrelated • By minimizing skew, less differential energy is converted to common mode energy, and differential throughput can be maximized • For any d
