Figure 7-1 Switch Port Connections


The RXAUI interface is for 10Gbps data transfer in 2x lanes with each lane running at
6.25Gbps, thereby reducing the number of SerDes lanes required for XAUI interface.
The Trident+ switch device requires four external clock sources for the WarpCores. Each
156.25MHZ reference clock connected to XG_PLLn_REF drives a WarpCore group. A
Total of four such clocks are routed to the device on the blade to drive four Warp Core
groups or 18 WarpCores.
