摘要: As Fast Ethernet (100Base-T) proliferates and becomes the leading standard in local area networks (LAN), demand for gigabit ethernet increases rapidly. Although fiber-optic transceivers (1000FX) are available, high cost of fiber modules cables limits deployment 1000FX to switch uplinks backbone connections. An integrated CMOS transceiver over unshielded twisted pair (UTP) category-5 (CAT-5) significantly reduces while providing data bandwidth at relatively low power consumption. A full-duplex transmission allows up 2 Gb/s throughput. Furthermore, compatibility with existing cabling infrastructure rapid 1000Base-T on desktop laptop PCs.
