GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Realtek RTL8211C(L)/RTL8211C(L)-VB is a highly integrated Ethernet transceiver that complies with 10Base-T, 100Base-TX, and 1000Base-T IEEE 802.3 standards. It provides all the necessary physical layer functions to transmit and receive Ethernet packets over CAT 5 UTP cable or CAT 3 UTP (10Mbps only) cable. Functions such as Crossover Detection & Auto-Correction, polarity correction, adaptive equalization, cross-talk cancellation, echo cancellation, timing recovery, and error correction are implemented in the RTL8211C(L) /RTL8211C(L)-VB to provide robust transmission and reception capabilities at 10Mbps, 100Mbps, or 1000Mbps. Data transfer between MAC and PHY is via the Reduced Gigabit Media Independent Interface (RGMII) for 1000Base-T, 10Base-T, and 100Base-TX. Note: RTL8211C(L) & RTL8211C(L)-VB differences are listed in section 12 Ordering Information, page 51.
