Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/8] net: phy: realtek: rtl8221: allow to configure SERDES mode

Message-ID: <8fdffc76-4b2f-44ea-9800-1e5d3624d94e@lunn.ch> (raw)

So what is 2500BASEX_SGMII? You cannot run SGMII at 2.5G, because
there is no way to repeat a symbol 2.5 times so that a 1G stream takes
up 2.5G bandwidth. The SGMII signalling also does not work at 2.5G.

Please add an explanation what this actually is.
