I've found > that by searching google and finding dp83td510e.pdf I'm curios how the voltage should be actually chosen? In the adin1100 datasheet i read: "The 1.0 V pk-pk operating mode, external termination resistors and independent Rx/Tx pins make the ADIN1100 suited to intrinsic safety applications" "For long reach/trunk applications the higher transmit amplitude of 2.4 V pk-pk" So, it seems to depends on: - do we have safety requirements? - how long is the cable? Can we use 2.4V any time if it is available or it is bad idea for short cables?
