Product Overview

• Four 933 Mbit/s to 1.25 Gbits/s IEEE 802.3-2000 Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel Physical Interfaces (FC-PI) System Compliant Transceivers.
• Four secondary serial channels for redundant system design.
• Configurable as four independent channels or as a single logical trunked channel with deskew providing 4 Gbits/duplex data throughput.
• Integrated clock synthesis, clock recovery, serializer/deserializer, built-in self-test, 8B/10B codec and IEEE 802.3-2000 Gigabit Ethernet Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS) logic.
• Rate matching via IDLE character insertion and deletion capable of compensating up to ±400 ppm of clock difference between channels.
• Pin programmable or software configurable operation using 2-pin IEEE 802.3 MDC/MDIO serial management interface.
• Supports pin-programmable hardwareonly device configuration.
