PAROLI

Infineon Technologies (formerly Siemens)

Introduction

The PAROLI link from Infineon Technologies (formerly Siemens) consists of a transmitter and a receiver module, connected by a 12 channel fiber. The optical transmission data rate is up to 1.25GBit/s per channel for highest data rate connections. The low voltage 3.3V and SMT design increase the benefit for new system designs which requires high density and low power consumption.
