Aquantia said it partnered with Siemon to test its flagship 40nm 10GBASE-T PHYs across the wide range of copper cables typically deployed in enterprise and data centers. The tests were performed on cable configurations extending beyond the IEEE 802.3an standard of 55m on Cat 6 and 100m on Cat 6A and Cat 7, pushing the envelope to the maximum insertion loss defined by TIA standards. The tests demonstrated the Aquantia 40nm 10GBASE-T PHY running error-free performance over a 120-meter Siemon Z-MAX Cat 6A channel. Aquantia said this distance sets a new performance benchmark in the industry for 10Gigabit Ethernet on copper. Aquantia's 40nm devices features a Mixed-Mode Signal Processing architecture, which has the characteristics of both simplifying the Analog Front End (AFE) and reducing the size and complexity of the digital section of the chip by performing advanced Signal Processing in analog. Aquantia is currently sampling its portfolio of 40nm 10GBASE-T PHYs, ranging from quad to single-port configurations. http://www.aquantia.com 19-Jul-10   Recent 10GBASE-T News AppliedMicro Introduces 10GBASE-T IC 12-Jul-10 NetLogic Debuts 10/40/100 Ethernet PHY for Data Centers 12-Jul-10 Solarflare Samples 40nm quad-port 10GBASE-T PHY chip 18-May-10 Teranetics Announces 40nm Quad 10GBASE-T PHY 19-Apr-10 Broadcom Releases Power 40nm 10GBASE-T PHYs 03-Feb-10 Learn How to Get Your Video on this Site Recent Silicon News Maxim Acquires Phyworks for Optical Transceiver Chips IBM Ships Four Core, 5.2 GHZ CPU -- World's Fastest NTT DOCOMO Works with WiSpry on RF-MEMS Technology Intel Confirms Acquisition of Infineon Wireless Applied Materials' Flowable CVD Offers New Chip Process Technology Xelerated Samples its Programmable Ethernet Switches Advantech and NetLogic Partner on 40Gbps ATCA Chassis Lantiq Samples 65nm VDSL2 CO Chipset with Line Bonding Lantiq Intros Wireless LAN Chips with Beamforming Lantiq Debuts Family of Gigabit Speed Gateway Processors Marvell Posts Revenue of $896 Million, Up 5% Sequentially Freescale Intros New PowerQUICC II Processors Broadcom Demos FastRTV Channel Change Technology Marvell Acquires DS2 for Powerline Chips AppliedMicro to Acquire TPACK for Emerging OTN > More news...   Search  this site   Search the Web   Get Your Column Published Improving the Backbone with Dual Redundant SIP Service by Ian Colville Emergency Response and Wireless Location Systems by Manlio Allegra Interview: NSN's Sue Spradley on LightSquared's Wholesale Mobile Data Paradigm by Sue Spradley Mobile Backhaul Transition Requires New Testing by Joe Zeto Cybersecurity Requires Public/Private Coalition by Greg Oslan A Rethinking of Cloud Services and Network Architecture by Jim Theodoras         E-mail Newsletter Subscribe Now
