Overview
The Intel® 82562EP is a highly-integrated Platform LAN Connect (PLC) device designed for 10 or 100 Mbps Ethernet systems. It is based on the IEEE 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX standards. The IEEE 802.3u standard for 100BASE-TX defines networking over two pairs of Category 5 unshielded twisted pair cable or Type 1 shielded twisted pair cable.
The 82562EP complies with the IEEE 802.3u Auto-Negotiation standard and the IEEE 802.3x Full Duplex Flow Control standard. The 82562EP also includes a PHY interface compliant to the current PLC interface.
