A new series of extended-temperature discrete magnetic components is designed for long-haul gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000Base-T) applications.

A new series of extended-temperature discrete magnetic components is designed for long-haul gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000Base-T) applications.

The new HX5 series is the first series of discrete gigabit parts with an operating temperature range of -40 to +85C to comply with Ethernet standard IEEE3 802.3i/u/ab.

The HX5020 has the smallest footprint (27.94 x 10.92mm) of any extended-temperature dual-port discrete gigabit component on the market today.

Primary uses for the new series include outdoor environments such as remote cellular basestations, telecommunications equipment, switch servers, aerospace, and automotive applications.

The HX5008 fits directly behind a 1x1 RJ45 connector for maximum space saving on a printed circuit board.

HX5012, HX5014, HX5020 are gigabit designs for dual-port high-density packet-switch applications.

The HX5020, with its compact footprint solution, is targeted for applications such as cellular and Tetra basestation equipment.

The cable interface provides isolation and low common-mode emissions.

The standard single port gigabit parts that Pulse offers are the H5004, H5005, H5008 and H5009.

The H5012, H5014 and H5020 dual-port components have operating temperature ranges between 0 and +70C.

Members of the new HX series, the HX5004 and HX5008 single-port components and the HX5014 and HX5020 dual-port components, have operational ranges of -40 to +85C.

In addition to IEEE802.3ab (1000Base-T) compliance, the extended-temperature, HX5 series also complies with IEEE802.3u (10/100Base-TX), IEE802.3i (10Base-TX), and ANSI X3.263 standards.

The parts in this new series are available in tube or tape-and-reel packaging.
