Hi all, I have a question on using switches on differential lines. An ethernet design is done for NIC (MDI) application. There are 2 pairs = (1 Tx & 1 RX) of differential lines which on which signal speed is = 100Mbps. Now we are thinking of giving MDIX option too so that both straight and = cross cable can be used. For that we don't want to disturb the design = except providing switches between magnetics and port to select differential= lines. Also i have to ensure that there is no cross routing of transmit and = receive signals. Even after that will there be any signal integrity issues? Has anybody = done this kind of design or do u know any product having switch option to = select b/w MDI & MDIX? Pls help.
