发明名称 FLEXIBLE ETHERNET CHIP-TO-CHIP INTEFACE SYSTEMS AND METHODS
摘要 A Chip-to-Chip (C2C) interface utilizing Flexible Ethernet (FlexE) includes circuitry configured to provide a packet interface on a single card or over backplane/fabric links between two devices, wherein the circuitry comprises flow control and channelization for the FlexE. Each of the two devices can include any of a Network Processor (NPU), a Fabric Interface Card (FIC), a framer, and a mapper. A rate of the FlexE can be increased to support additional information for the flow control and the channelization.
