IXF18101/IXF18102/IXF18103/IXF18104 - 10 Gigabit Ethernet MAC and Sonet Framer

Cortina's IXF1810x family of 10 Gigabit framer devices provide the broadest support for 10 Gbps solutions. The protocols supported are STS-192c POS, 10 Gigabit Ethernet WAN, 10 Gigabit Ethernet LAN, and GFP framing. The table below summarizes the high-level feature set:

Part NumberFeature Set
IXF18101
STS-192c/STM 64c POS
GFP
10 GbE LAN and WAN with MAC, PCS, and WIS
SFI-4/XSBI line side interface
SPI-4 Phase 2 system-side interface
IXF18102
STS-192c/STM 64c POS
GFP
SFI-4 line side interface
SPI-4 Phase 2 system-side interface
IXF18103
10 Gigabit Ethernet LAN and WAN PHY with MAC, PCS, and WIS
XSBI line side interface
SPI-4 Phase 2 system-side Interface
IXF18104
10 Gigabit Ethernet LAN PHY with MAC, and PCS
XSBI line side interface
SPI-4 Phase 2 system-side Interface

All these devices are pin-, footprint-, and register set-compatible. This allows customers to design one line card for multiple applications, providing cost savings over a single line card with other unsupported features.
