Method and apparatus for data reception are provided, retrieving digital values transmitted through a cable. In a data receiver, an equalizer equalizes an input signal based on a boost value to generate an equalized signal, and a data extractor samples the equalized signal to extract output values from each symbol period. The data extractor detects signal quality of the equalized signal to adjust the boost value accordingly. An optimal time point is detected within one symbol period where an output value is an ensured valid, and variation rate of the optimal time point is counted as an inverse indicator of the signal quality.
