Abstract

See full text

A system and method are provided for transporting digital information via a modified Attachment Unit Interface (MAUI) or XAUI-like interface. At a transmitter, a synchronous serial stream of digital information is accepted. The serial stream is divided into a sequence of segments. The segments are encapsulated, creating a sequence of packets by adding a start character to the beginning of each segment, and adding a terminate character to the end of each segment. Typically, each segment is disinterleaved across m equal-rate lanes, whose combination is effectively equal to the incoming serial stream data rate, with compensation for added encapsulation characters. The added encapsulation characters may include post-start characters added subsequent to the start character, inter-packet characters added subsequent to the termination character, or a combination of post-start and inter-packet characters.
