Abstract:
A configurable interface includes a transmitter module and a receiver module, each configured to operate according to at least three different interface standards. The configurable interface further includes an interface module configured to determine a physical medium attachment (PMA) standard of a PMA coupled to the configurable interface and activate at least one component of the configurable interface based on the PMA standard. In an arrangement, the device interface supports a CAUI-4 standard.
