Why bidirectional? What are you trying to protect against? How many transceivers? How much space? Cost target?

Is bidirectional the same as bipolar? I know nothing about TVS diodes.

Yes, basically a nose-to-nose zener vs. a single zener.
What are you trying to protect against?
Think of them as zeners.

You're already on google. Why not just google TVS diodes?
