Our Copper Small Form Pluggable (SFP) transceivers are high-performance, cost-effective modules compliant with the Gigabit Ethernet and 1000BASE-T standards as specified in IEEE802.3-2002 and IEEE802.3ab, supporting 1000Mbps data-rate up to 100 metres over unshielded twisted-pair category 5 cable.
The module supports 1000Mbps full duplex data-links with 5-level Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM) signals. All four pairs in the cable are used with symbol rate at 250Mbps on each pair.
The module provides standard serial ID information compliant with SFP MSA, which can be accessed with address of A0h via the 2 wire serial CMOS EEPROM protocol. The physical IC can also be accessed via 2 wire serial bus at address ACh.
