ML6651 Auto-Negotiating Media Converter
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ML6651 converts signals transmitted between twisted
pair and fiber optic Ethernet technologies. It supports
conversion between 10BASE-T and 10BASE-FL, between
100BASE-TX and 100BASE-FX/SX, and between FLP (fast
link pulse) bursts and FLNP (fiber link negotiation pulse)
bursts. Either 850nm or 1300nm laser optics can be used
for both 10 and 100 Mb/second operating data rates while
fully auto-negotiating for speed and duplex mode
communication. One or both of the fiber optic and
twisted pair interfaces can be set to interface with
industry standard 1x9 fiber optic PMD modules, using
PECL or LVPECL compatible modes.
