Fiber transceivers
A combination of fiberoptic transceiver modules and compatible transceiver IC provide a complete physical layer interface for 1.25-Gbit/s Ethernet LANs with link lengths of u¥to 2 km. The modules use 850-nm vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers for short-distance links and 1300-nm Fabry-Perot lasers for longer links and run on 3.3-V power supplies.
