Vitesse Semiconductor has unveiled its latest 10G Ethernet physical-layer serializer/deserializer.
The VSC8488 and VSC8484 dual and quad Ethernet PHYs are the first such devices brought to market that support Synchronous Ethernet and other precision timing capabilities.
They also have working and protection failover capability required to meet carrier resiliency.
The new Ethernet PHYs are ideal for high-density 10G aggregation in emerging 40G/100G Ethernet backbones, mobile backhaul/transport, and enterprise networks,
