Overview
Ethernet PHYs / Transceivers for Networking Equipment
Reduce your development costs and time to market with Microsemi's Ethernet physical layer ICs (Ethernet PHYs). Our broad physical layer portfolio includes 10-400 Gigabit Ethernet and OTN PHYs, as well as the SimpliPHY™ branded 10/100 Industrial-Grade Fast Ethernet copper PHYs, SimpliPHY and SynchroPHY™ branded Gigabit Ethernet copper and dual-media PHYs for connecting systems via optical fiber, copper cable, or backplanes.
Microsemi’s META-DX1 family devices are multi-purpose Ethernet MACs/PHYs supporting rates from 1GE to 400GE. Each family member has 48 high-speed SerDes to enable up to 1.2 Tbps capacity with PAM4 SerDes, 800 Gbps when configured for gearboxing or 2:1 mux applications, and 600 Gbps capacity with NRZ SerDes. These highly flexible devices support MACsec and FlexE for data center interconnect and service provider applications. The META-DX1 devices also support retiming (analog and PCS), forward and reverse gearboxing, industry-leading timestamping accuracy to enable Class C/D PTP applications, hitless 2:1 multiplexing, crosspoint functionality, and flexible I/O to enable connectivity to a variety of optical modules, DACs, packet processors, and Ethernet switches.
Microsemi's 1 Gigabit Ethernet (GE) and 10GE SynchroPHY family features VeriTime™, the industry's de facto highest accuracy IEEE 1588 network timing and synchronization. The newest PHYs also enable 256/128-bit AES encryption, based on Microsemi's Intellisec™ IEEE 802.1AE MACsec technology, and are the world's first to achieve Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 197 256-bit AES encryption certification. Microsemi's 1GE and 10GE PHYs combining Intellisec and VeriTime are the industry's only secure 1588 ICs, able to support AES encryption without compromising 1588 timing accuracy.
Microsemi's field-proven PHY portfolio delivers highly advanced feature integration at low power, compact footprint and low cost, significantly reducing development costs and time to market for a variety of network equipment such as access and aggregation routers and switches, mobile base stations, cell site routers and gateways, and more.
