Copperhead

Fibre Channel transceiver

line interface module

Fiber speed data and communications

over 100+ meters of copper

Features

High performance, low cost alternative to completely fiber systems

Enhanced distance and signal clarity with complete inter-operability per ANSI X3T11,

FC-PH (FC-0 Rev 9.1)

Small, discrete passive design incorporates equalizer, transformers, and filters for

"short haul" applications; industrial temp -40°C to +85°C (-55°C to +125°C available)

Compact active models for "long haul" applications; -40°C to +85°C and -55° to +125°

Low EMI emissions; designed for FCC Class B compliance and use over shielded

twisted pair cable with high radiated electromagnetic susceptibility - 10 V/m

Low transmit/receive jitter

Small footprint for surface mounting

Low power dissipation; 450 mW typical

ECL logic interface - directly compatible with proposed standards

Applications

Fibre Channel

HDTV

Gigabit Ethernet

SMPTE

SONET

IEEE 1394B

Designed to be inter-operable with existing ECL fiber transceiver

drivers, Copperhead

interface modules drive high frequency (fiber speed) signals

over copper media. Models TM133 thru TM1062 are designed to

deliver fibre channel capabilities to the workstation over shielded

twisted pair (STP), twinax, mini coax, and video coaxial cable.

Model TM1250 provides communications for short haul Gigabit

Ethernet applications, typically over twinax or coaxial cable.

Model TM1485 provides communications for SMPTE, also typi-

cally over twinax or coax cable. All Copperhead

copper transceiver line interface modules are supplied as sur-

face mount gull wing packages.
