1.25 Gbps transmit differential inputs
When this interface is used as a MAC interface, the MAC
transmitter's positive output connects to SIP and the MAC
transmitter's negative output connects to the SIN.
When this interface is used as a fiber interface, the fiber-optic
transceiver's positive output connects to the SIP and the fiber-optic
transceiver's negative output connects to the SIN.
OA 1.25 Gbps receive differential outputs
When this interface is used as a MAC interface, the MAC receiver's
positive input connects to SOP and the MAC receiver's negative
input connects to the SON.
When this interface is used as a fiber interface, the fiber-optic
transceiver's positive input connects to the SOP and the fiber-optic
transceiver's negative input connects to the SON.
IA
Signal Detect. 1.2 V voltage level. Input signals must not exceed
1.4V.
