10.3125 Gbps Repeaters Twice the Reach at Half the Power

  • Comprehensive portfolio
    • (4-channel, unidirectional)
    • (2-channel, unidirectional)
    • (1-channel, bidirectional)
  • Twice the performance, half the power
    • Highest equalization (36 dB), de-emphasis (12 dB) – Extend reach up to 20m (AWG-24), 50" (FR-4)
    • Lowest power (55 mW per 10 Gbps channel) – Simplifies thermal design
    • Lowest residual jitter (< 0.3UI at 10 Gbps) – Increased system jitter margin
    • Easy to use – Single power supply, flow-through pinout, pin/SMBus programmable
  • Small footprint & low power fits SFP/SFP+, QSFP, CXP, SAS-HD, etc connectors
  • Ideal for 10G Ethernet, SAS/SATA, InfiniBand, XAUI, CPRI etc. over FR-4 or cable assemblies
