Single port and eight port 2.5GBASE-T ICM now available

Bel Magnetic Solutions has announced a single port and eight-port 2.5GBASE-T MagJack ICM. These ICMs provide a cost-effective solution for upgrading end-product performance to multi-rate, NBASE-T Ethernet standards.

These reliable, cost-competitive ICMs are compatible with all new multi-rate Ethernet PHYs. The devices are ideal for next-generation 5G cellular equipment, low density, 2.5GBASE-T Ethernet switches, high bandwidth 2.5GBASE-T network interface cards, NBASE-T compliant products and industrial controls equipment.

The ICMs are backwards compatible to slower speeds and employ industry-standard footprints and pinouts. The solution doubles product speed and bandwidth at almost the same cost as 1GBASE-T solutions.
