TSB41BA3B: Need 1394 transceiver in -40 to 85C - must be able to drive 60+ ft

Part Number: TSB41BA3B

Hi,

We are looking to find a 1394 Transceiver Equalizer which can drive further than the AS5643 S200Beta 60ft standard.

The TI P/N TSB41BA3B-EP (V62/03670-02XE) can only drive the standard distance and has temp range -40C to 110C.

Could you please help me to find a similar 1394 transceiver that can drive further than 60 feet. Operating temp range of -40C to 85C should be OK also

Thanks,

David

    All TI PHYs are designed for short-haul copper cables.

    As far as I can see, using one of the other 1394 physical connections requires other hardware; for example, IOI says:

    FW-CAT5S400 enables 1394 signals to be transmitted and received over Cat5 or Cat6 Unshielded Twisted- Pair (UTP) cable.
    FW-CAT5S400 is optimized to create long-haul IEEE 1394b-2002 connections over Cat5 or Cat6 at the S400 data rate
    […]
    Equipped with a multi-rate adaptive equalizer which restore IEEE Std 1394b signals received over Cat 5 or Cat6 Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) Cable at 400 Megabits per Second (Mbits/s)

    FWB2GOF01 is a FireWire 800 to GOF repeater featuring Texas Instrument's TSB81BA3 and Fiber Optical Transceiver.
    FWB2GOF01-MTRJ is with one Agilent HFBR-5912E (MT-RJ) Small Form Factor Fiber Optical Transceiver.

    FWB2GOF01-LC is a FireWire 800 to GOF repeater featuring Texas Instrument's TSB81BA3 and Fiber Optical Transceiver.
    The GOF port is Gigabit Ethernet 850nm VCSEL (Multi-Mode) Transceiver with LC-Duplex Connector.
    Utilizing an IEEE1394 PHY and optical transceiver, the FWB2GOF01-LC is capable of sending IEEE1394 signals across a LC/LC optical fiber cable up to 500 meters in length!
