DP83867IR: Modeling MDI link losses

Part Number: DP83867IR

Due to design constraints, it is not possible to have our magnetics located very near to the PHY. We would like to model the MDI link to see if our design is viable. For TX from the DP83867IR PMD pins, it is possible to add up all the link losses with the typical output waveforms provided on the datasheet and compare the result with 802.3 requirements. For RX to the PMD pins, there is no information provided with regard to the receiver sensitivity. Can you provide any insight on receive thresholds, sensitivity, etc...?

Thanks,

Jordan
