HALO Electronics, Inc. is pleased to announce the industry's first 6 port 10/100BASE-TX transformer module. The 6Pack™ provides 6 ports of IEEE802.3 compliant magnetics in a single compact package. A significant real estate savings is achieved through the use of a proprietary design technique enabling a 50% increase of ports per board. The small size of this part makes it ideal for the highest density repeaters and switches. The 6Pack™ is compatible with all next generation, "Auto-MDIX", Phy's, including Marvell.

This new family is UL1950, IEC950, and EN60950 recognized. Port pricing is competitive with the existing 4 port package solutions. Samples and prototypes are available now. Production lead-time is 8-10 weeks with first deliveries available in February. Due to the leading edge design and competitive sensitivity of this new product, binding nondisclosure agreements must be in place to receive data sheets – please contact your local Avnet Memec sales office.
