Overview

The GN1407 is a quad channel equalizer designed to operate from 1.0Gbps to 8.0Gbps. The GN1407 extends the reach and robustness of high-speed serial links by compensating for losses in the transmission medium.

Each high-speed input interface includes a high gain equalizer, programmable over a serial control interface.

The GN1407 high-speed serial output interface allows for amplitude adjustment through the use of a serial control interface.

Each channel in the GN1407 can be independently configured or powered down.
