Tyco Electronics Announces New CoEv Ultra-Low Profile Gigabit Ethernet Magnetics Module
MENLO PARK, CA-October 16, 2002- Tyco Electronics announces the new Model GB4xxx-LP single-port Gigabit Ethernet magnetics module from its CoEv Magnetics/Transpower Technologies brand. At less than 2.5mm thick, this ultra-low profile single-channel interface for 10/100/1000 Gigabit applications is the first of its kind in the market. It is designed to help facilitate the development of smaller mobile devices such as laptop computers, tablet PCs, PCMCIA cards, docking stations and other low-profile Ethernet devices.
"The ultra-low profile and compact footprint of the GB4xxx-LP module helps designers drive forward their efforts toward smaller, thinner product designs," said Adrian Mikolajczak, Multimedia Market Manager for Tyco Electronics Power Components.
The surface-mount magnetics module helps provide a single port IEEE802.3 compliant transformer/choke for Gigabit Ethernet applications. Compared to prior Gigabit Ethernet modules with a height of 5.7mm, the new component offers a breakthrough in module height. Integrated into the thin package are four isolation transformers and four common mode chokes, with an option for four Auto Transformers.
"The GB4xxx-LP product takes advantage of the latest developments in ferrite materials and transfer molding technology to achieve Gigabit performance in a product that is less than 2.5mm thick," said Bob Lappin, Design Engineer for CoEv Magnetics.
The GB4xxx-LP is available in tube or tape and reel packaging for compatibility with high-volume manufacturing. For further information or technical assistance, call (888) 978-2638, or visit www.tycopowercomponents.com.
