Description

The ML6651CH is an electronic component model that 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. It can use either 850nm or 1300nm laser optics for both 10 and 100 Mb/second operating data rates and has full auto-negotiation for speed and duplex mode communication. The interface can be set to work with industry-standard 1x9 fiber optic PMD modules using PECL or LVPECL compatible modes.
