The main aim of this paper is to present an approach to establish optical fiber communication by employing the standard IEEE 802. Samtec's 25/28 Gbps FireFly™ FMC+™ Module provides up to 400/448 Gbps full-duplex bandwidth over up to 16 channels from an FPGA to an industry-standard multi-mode fiber optic cable.

Abstract— The transmission and reception of information such as the data from a sensor, data in form of images, text, voice and videos on Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) over ethernet through a coaxial cable, involves attenuation and distortion of signals at certain speed. Given that you mention an ISERDES and OSERDES, do you already have the FPGA boards, or do you need to know which FPGAs could support this? For a low enough bitrate, you can implement your own SERDES in regular logic. However, a potential weakness with this type of emulation is that it does not use data ob-tained from experiments, but synthetically creates test data.
