100Base-FX Fiber Operation (KSZ8041FTL only)
100Base-FX fiber operation is similar to 100Base-TX copper operation with the differences being that the scrambler/de-
scrambler and MLT3 encoder/decoder are bypassed on transmission and reception. In addition, auto-negotiation is
bypassed, auto MDI/MDI-X is disabled, and speed is set to 100Mbps. The duplex can be set to either half or full. Usually,
it is set to full-duplex.
Fiber Signal Detect
In 100Base-FX operation, FXSD (fiber signal detect), input pin 48, is usually connected to the fiber transceiver SD (signal
detect) output pin. 100Base-FX mode is activated when the FXSD input pin is greater than 1V. When FXSD is between
1V and 1.8V, no fiber signal is detected and a Far-End Fault is generated. When FXSD is over 2.2V, the fiber signal is
detected.
100Base-FX mode and signal detection is summarized in the following table:
To ensure proper operation, a resistive voltage divider is recommended to adjust the fiber transceiver SD (signal detect)
output voltage swing to match the FXSD pin’s input voltage threshold.
Alternatively, the Far-End Fault feature can be disabled. In this case, the FXSD input pin is tied high to 3.3V to force
100Base-FX mode.
Far-End Fault
A Far-End Fault (FEF) occurs when the signal detection is logically false on the receive side of the fiber transceiver. The
KSZ8041FTL detects a FEF when its FXSD input (pin 48) is between 1V and 1.8V. When a FEF is detected, the
KSZ8041FTL signals its fiber link partner that a FEF has occurred by transmitting a repetitive pattern of 84-ones and 1-
zero. This pattern is used to inform the fiber link partner that there is a faulty link on its transmit side.
By default, FEF is enabled. FEF is disabled by strapping “no FEF” (pin 43) low. See “Strapping Options” section for detail.
