Optical Module XAUI
Microsemi® RTG4® FPGA device family provides a fully embedded 10 Gigabit Attachment Unit Interface (XAUI) specialized 10 Gigabit Ethernet optical modules and system backplanes. It supports four SerDes transmit and four SerDes receive channels for 8B/10B encoding. 3ae 10 Gigabit Ethernet Task Force, XAUI delivers 10 Gb/s of data throughput using four differential signal pairs. The TLK10031 is a single-channel multi-rate transceiver intended for use in high-speed bi-directional point-to-point data transmission systems. AscentOptics`s X2 optical transceivers are compatible with the X2 Multi-Sourcing Agreement (MSA) as well as 10G Ethernet. The X2 products are use in datacom optical links and contain an XAUI electrical interface to the host board - 4 x 3. This XAUI PHY along with a 10GbE media access control (MAC) IP core enables an Altera FPGA to interface to a 10GbE network through a variety of external devices, including a 10GbE PHY.
