Appendix B. OPERATIONS
REFERENCE
B.1 Overview
This appendix provides the end user with reference guides for the following operational
parameters:
• Section B.2 Modes provides tables showing the various operating modes’ available data
rates and ranges.
• Section B.3 Clocking Options provides information about common clocking options and
recommended configurations.
• Section B.4 Buffering.
B.2 Modes
The Data Rates and Symbol Rates shown in the following tables all assume that Transmission
Security (TRANSEC) is turned off. In order to calculate the max data rate with TRANSEC on,
the max data rate shown in the table becomes a max aggregate data rate. The real data rate can be
calculated by dividing the TRANSEC overhead rate from the aggregate data rate. The TRANSEC
overhead rate can be calculated for any TRANSEC Frame Length (N) as follows:
TRANSEC Overhead Rate = (3 + 16 * N) / (16 * N)
