CG5321A-CNE3

Specialized ICS Overview

The Lumissil CG5321A-CNE3 is a G.hn transceiver implementing the MAC and PHY components of the ITU-T G.hn stack protocols. Designed for powerline MIMO and SISO applications, it supports the G.9963 recommendation to utilize phase, neutral, and ground wires for enhanced coverage and noise immunity. The device delivers up to 1 Gbps physical layer bit rates and integrates an embedded Fast Ethernet controller with RGMII/MII interfaces. It features AES 128-bit encryption, IPv4/IPv6 support, and TR-069 management capabilities.

Specialized ICS Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CNE3' against official Lumissil documentation to confirm package type, temperature grade, and tape/reel configuration. Ensure compatibility with required external DDR3 memory and reference clock circuits as specified in the system implementation guidelines.

Specialized ICS Selection Notes

Select the CG5321A over the CG5315 or CG5331 when MIMO functionality across three power lines is required. Confirm that the industrial temperature rating (-40ºC to +85ºC) meets environmental requirements. Verify interface needs for RGMII/MII and embedded MAC capabilities.

Specialized ICS Part Context

The CG5321A belongs to the CG5300 series of G.hn transceivers, which also includes the CG5315 (Coax/Phone) and CG5331 (Powerline SISO). This series provides a unified solution for multi-media distribution over existing home wiring infrastructure.
