I. Purpose of the Cooperation Agreement (Agreement)

Each party desires to establish internationally compatible sources of a pluggable fiber optic transceiver module in support of standards for fiber optic systems including Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), FDDI, Fibre Channel, Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet, and Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) / Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) applications.Each party further desires to establish uniformity in the industry for the Transceiver ¡°Package Dimensions¡±, ¡°Cage and Electrical Connector System¡±, ¡°Host Board Layout¡±, ¡°Electrical Interfaces¡±, and ¡°Front Panel Bezel Requirements¡± as described in Appendices A-B. Each party expects that the establishment of compatible sources for an interchangeable transceiver module will allow the entire fiber optic marketplace to grow more rapidly. This enhanced marketplace growth, customer choice, and vigorous competition are the express purposes of this Agreement. Each party acknowledges this agreement provides a solution with height as a primary limiting constraint and may not provide an optimum solution for applications with different constraints.The parties desire to establish compatible sources for additional products in the future.

II. Agreement

A. General
The parties agree to cooperate by supporting common product specifications for pluggable fiber optic transceivers with the package ¡°Package Dimensions¡±, ¡°Cage and Electrical Connector System¡±, ¡°Host Board Layout¡±, ¡°Electrical Interfaces¡±, and ¡°Front Panel Bezel Requirements¡± as shown in Appendices A-B. The overall package dimensions shall not exceed the maximum indicated dimensions, and the mounting features shall be located such that the products are mechanically interchangeable with the cage and connector system. In addition the overall dimensions and mounting requirements for the cage and connector system on a circuit board shall be configured such that the products are mechanically and electrically interchangeable. The electrical and optical specifications shall be compatible with those enumerated in the appropriate standards (i.e. the IEEE 802.3z Gigabit Ethernet standard and the ITU G.957 Synchronous Digital Hierarchy standard). Recommended circuit layouts for electrical input and output terminations, and grounding practices are also described in Appendix B.The transceivers per this Agreement will accept an optical connector such as the duplex LC,MT-RJ or the SG connector. This Agreement does not preclude any of the parties from offering SFP transceivers with other connectors. Internal design of the SFP transceiver is entirely at the discretion of each party and is not covered by this Agreement. The parties recognize that their products may not be identical, but
need only meet the above criteria.
