SN65HVD1473: RS-422 terminaison resistor

Part Number: SN65HVD1473

Hi there,

I'm using the SN65HVD1473 transceiver in RS-422 mode. As the data rate is over 200 Kbps we need a 120ohm terminaison resistor. What reference do you advise to use? Which package? 

In fact, the EIA-422 indicates a maximum differential voltage equal to 12V, does it mean the 120 ohm resistor has to support 1,2 Watt? 

Thanks,

Best regards.
