The 1348TA S03D is designed to meet or exceed every requirement of the IEEE802.3aq, 10GBASE-LRM (10G LRM) standard.

Inphi Corporation has released the 1348TA S03D 10Gbit/s integrated transimpedance amplifier / automatic gain control (TIA/AGC), designed to meet or exceed every requirement of the IEEE802.3aq, 10GBASE-LRM (10G LRM) standard This makes it one of the first viable solutions for 10G SFP+ Long Reach Multimode applications

"Inphi's 1348TA is the type of breakthrough product that should speed the migration to 10Gbit/s Ethernet long reach multi-mode transmissions, enabling a new class of performance for enterprise networks and applications", said Dr Jon Anderson, Vice President Research And Development for Opnext's Pluggable Business Unit.

"As communications and computing platforms continue moving to higher speeds, Inphi is delivering the performance design engineers need".

The 1348TA S03D has a gain of 6kW differential, resulting high-output voltage amplitude that meets the SFP+ requirements over the entire operating range from - 11dBm (optical modulation amplitude) to + 3dBm (optical modulation amplitude), without the need for an additional buffer amplifier, exceeding IEEE10GBASE-LRM standards.

The integrated TIA/ACG passed stringent testing to ensure complete interoperability with all leading electronic dispersion compensation (EDC) chips in the market and is expected to speed deployment of 10Gbit/s Ethernet (10 GbE) serial transmission over all grades of low-cost multimode fibre.

The 10G LRM standard simplifies extended reach 10 GbE data transmission over legacy MMF by employing new electronic dispersion compensation (EDC) technology.

The demand to convert slower, legacy data links to 10G LRM links is expected to reach over one million ports by 2010.
