Card and cable specifications
Operating distances for 10 GigE Base-SR using multi-mode fiber (MMF) optic cable are as follows:
The AD144A conforms to the specifications for 10GBase-SR set forth in the IEEE Std 802.3ae™-2002. The
10GBase serial physical layer device (PHY) used in 10 GigE Base-SR does not directly interface with any
other form of 10 Gigabit Ethernet such as Base-LR, ER, SW, LW, or EW or any other Ethernet link interfaces
such as 1000Base-SX or 100Base-FX.
