Description
The 2417J4A transceiver is a high-speed, cost-effec-
tive optical transceiver that is compliant with the
IEEE
®
802.3z Gigabit Ethernet Physical Medium
Dependent (PMD) 1000Base-LX specifications using
a long-wavelength laser. The transceiver features the
latest generation of Agere Systems optics and is
packaged in a narrow-width plastic housing with an
LC duplex receptacle. This receptacle fits into an
RJ-45 form-factor outline. The 10-pin package and
pinout conform to a multisource transceiver agree-
ment.
The transmitter features differential LVPECL logic
level data inputs and an LVTTL logic level disable
input. The receiver features differential LVPECL logic
level data outputs and an LVTTL logic level signal-
detect output.
