3.22 100BASE-FX Fiber Operation (KSZ8041FTL Only)
100BASE-FX fiber operation is similar to 100BASE-TX copper operation with the differences being that the scrambler/
de-scrambler and MLT3 encoder/decoder are bypassed on transmission and reception. In addition, auto-negotiation is
bypassed, auto MDI/MDI-X is disabled, and speed is set to 100 Mbps. The duplex can be set to either half or full. Usu-
ally, it is set to full-duplex.
3.22.1 FIBER SIGNAL DETECT
In 100BASE-FX operation, FXSD (fiber signal detect), input pin 48, is usually connected to the fiber transceiver SD (sig-
nal detect) output pin. 100BASE-FX mode is activated when the FXSD input pin is greater than 1V. When FXSD is
between 1V and 1.8V, no fiber signal is detected and a Far-End Fault is generated. When FXSD is over 2.2V, the fiber
signal is detected.
100BASE-FX mode and signal detection is summarized in the following table:
