  • Scramble of Payload and Preamble in 10SPE with Synchronous and Self-Synchronous Scrambling
    Publication number: 20190268453
    Abstract: An apparatus includes an encoder circuit and a scrambler circuit configured to receive a frame, the frame including a preamble and a payload. The scrambler circuit is further configured to scramble contents of the frame including the payload and at least a portion of the preamble, provide synchronization information with results of scrambling the contents, and send results of scrambling the contents to the encoder circuit.
    Type: Application
