Quick Setup Guide V1.0
The INT5500CS provides two types of host interface for maximum system
flexibility:
•
An MII PHY (IEEE 802.3u) interface for interconnection to Ethernet
controllers
•
An MII Host / DTE interface (IEEE 802.3u) for direct connection to an
Ethernet PHY
The INT5500CS implements Intellon's patented OFDM technology, which forms
the basis for the HomePlug1.0 with Turbo specification. Tailored to reliably deliver
up to 85 Mbps over the difficult power line communication environment, the
chipset combats deep attenuation notches, noise sources, and multi-path fading
by allocating usable frequencies according to the signal to noise ratio (SNR).
Synchronization is achieved in low SNR channels without the use of pilot carriers.
Inclusion of additional modulation schemes (QAM 256/64/16) increases the
chipset's capability to attain higher throughput performance.
