Polymer and HCS fiber networks are now available for Fast Ethernet. The interface modules FL IF TX/POF 10/100-D and FL IF TX/HCS 100-D have a twisted pair port with RJ45 plugs and a fiber optic port ...

This application note discusses the terminations required at both ends of the transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx) transmission lines for proper interconnection of different Avago Technologies Fast ...

PEP Modular Computers has launched a Fast Ethernet interface board for ComactPCI, called the CP340. Using the Intel 82558 Fast Ethernet Lan Controller, the only controller featuring an on-chip ...

For the first time in its history, the IEEE has released two Ethernet standards simultaneously: 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40GE) and 100 Gigabit Ethernet (100GE), both defined by the 802.3ba Task Force. For ...

Not all network switches are created equal. Although there is a dazzling array of Ethernet switches with fancy feature sets, these switches can be judged by one primary factor: transmission speed.

With many appliances transitioning to Internet Protocol (IP) networks, the Ethernet interface finds itself in these products for the first time. This makes electromagnetic compliance (EMC) a challenge ...

The paper describes how, with a SOPC (System on a Programmable Chip) architecture embedded with a 32-Bit NIOS-II, a Layer 2 Ethernet switch can be implemented in a FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) ...
