GENERAL DESCRIPTION
It provides a Media Independent Interface (MII) allowing direct chip-to-chip connection, motherboard-to-daughter board connection or connection via a cable in a similar manner to the AUI approach used with 10Base-Tsystems. A station management interface is provided to receive command information and send status information. It transmits and receives NRZI data and interfaces directly to the optical transceiver. It can operate in either half duplex or full duplex. FEATURES
