Assignee: MARVELL ASIA PTE LTD
Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 8:
9. The first multi-port transceiver of claim 1, wherein:
each first port configured to operate at 2.5 gigabits per second (Gbps);
the first communication interface is configured to transmit and receive data at 10 Gbps;
the second communication interface is configured to transmit and receive data at 20 Gbps;
the multi-rate interleaver circuitry is configured to interleave i) the plurality of first data streams, each received at 2.5 Gbps, and ii) the second data stream received at 10 Gbps, to generate the third data stream to be transmitted via the second communication interface at 20 Gbps; and
the multi-rate deinterleaver circuitry is configured to deinterleave the fourth data stream that was received at 20 Gbps into i) the plurality of fifth data streams, each fifth data stream to be transmitted at 2.5 Gbps, and ii) the sixth data stream to be transmitted at 10 Gbps.
