Lane alignment characteristics in massively parallel Ethernet-based transmission systems

抄録

We have proposed the 10 Tbps class dynamic bandwidth flexible Ethernet-based massively parallel media access control (MAC) system; “Dynamic MAC”. The dynamic MAC requires up to 400 lanes parallel transmission and up to 10 ms skew canceling. Therefore, lane alignment among 400 lanes should be established. In this paper, numerical analysis results of lane alignment characteristics; alignment time and link-up time of the dynamic MAC system, are presented.
