Auto-negotiation

Implements IEEE 802.3 clause 37. Supported in 1GbE only.

USXGMII Auto-negotiation supported in the 10M/100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G (USXGMII/NBASE-T) configuration.

SGMII Auto-negotiation supported in the 10M/100M/1G (SGMII) configuration.

IEEE 1588v2 Provides the required latency to the MAC if the MAC enables the IEEE 1588v2 feature.
Supported:
  • 2.5G
  • 1G/2.5G
  • 1G/2.5G/10G (MGBASE-T)
  • 10M/100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G (USXGMII)
    Note: For the 10M/100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G (USXGMII) configuration, the provided latency is applicable only for 100M, 1G, 2.5G, 5G, and 10G modes.
Not Supported:
  • 10M/100M/1G/2.5G
  • 10M/100M/1G/2.5G/10G (MGBASE-T)
Sync-E Provides the clock for Sync-E implementation.
