VIA Tahoe VT6108S PHY-ceiver

The VT6108S is a highly integrated, eight-port, 100BASE-TX, 100BASE-FX and 10BASE-T PHY Fast Ethernet Transceiver. It supports Serial MII(SMII) and Source Synchronous SMII(SS-SMII) to Fast Ethernet 100BASE -TX and 10BASE-T media and is available with speeds at both 100Mbps and 10Mbps for IEEE802.3u physical layer applications. The pseudo-ECL(PECL) interface is available on a per port basis to support 100BASE-FX applications. Flexible hardware settings are provided to configure the operating modes of the chip.

In addition, the VT6108S features very low power consumption, as low as 1.8W. It uses category 5 Unshielded, Type 1 shielded and Fiber Optic cables and is manufactured with low power CMOS process.
