Vinod, Just to add, how CDR will recover this slow varying jitter. CDR will not let slow frequency jitter to close the eye as clock recovery happening in rx is making it open.

I am working on 5Gbps serial link where Rx jitter tolerance test states that at 100KHz SJ with 200% UI amplitude, we should meet BER of 1 in 10^-12. But the part i am not able to understand is with 2UI Jitter, how will the eye be opened as 2UI jitter means that the edge of data is shifted by an amount greater than 1UI which means the eye is closed !!. I am not sure how CDR circuits can recover clock with this much jitter as it might easily fall out of the loop bandwidth. Can serial data experts help me out in understanding the concept of eye opening with jitter > 1UI and how CDR circuits work with such high jitter? I went several articles on google, but for some reason was not able to find a convincing answer.
