Hello,
I am currently troubleshooting a design that connects two TSB81BA3I together using its ports. To clarify the set-up, let me refer to one of the transceivers as A and the other as B. On the LLC side, transceiver A interfaces directly to a LLC TSB82AA2E using the D*/Control lines and on its media side (IEEE 1394 lines) using its port 3, it connects to transceiver B port 1. D*/control lines on transceiver B are open/pull-down. Both transceivers have its 98.304MHz active. My questions regarding this set-up are as follow:
a) Do the connection from transceiver A port 3 to transceiver B port 1 is valid to do?
b) If the connections is valid, how does transceiver A and B sets its ports speeds?
More questions to come once a) question is answered
Thanks
Francisco T
