VSC8211

The VSC8211 is ideal for Media Converter and 100BASE-FX applications. Its low power consumption and patented line driver technology reduce the cost and complexity of Gigabit Ethernet (GE) system designs. The VSC8211's integrated 1.25 G SerDes and Auto-Media Sense™ feature allow system designers to support Category-5 twisted pair, fiber optic, and backplane interfaces from a single device. Microchip's mixed signal and DSP architecture yields robust performance, supporting both full and half duplex 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T over >140m of Category 5, unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable, with industry leading tolerance to NEXT, FEXT, Echo, and system noise.
