Long Distance HIPPI Connections

HIPPI-Serial Rev 2.6 has been approved as American National Standard X3.300-1997. The published document has the same technical content as HIPPI-Serial.

  1. Serial-HIPPI exist in a long wavelenght (1300 nm) version covering distances up to 10 Km using single mode fiber.
  2. Serial-HIPPI exist in a short wavelength ( 850 nm) version covering distances up to 500 m using multimode fiber.
  3. A user test of Serial HIPPI over 8.5 Km of Single mode Fiber using the HIPPI Modem:
