Abstract
In present embodiments, operation methods and apparatus for reducing power consumption in aGBASE-T transceiver circuit having transmit circuitry and receive circuitry for coupling to a plurality of physical channels are provided to transmit first data with the transmit circuitry in a first direction, receive second data with the receive circuitry in a second direction opposite to the first direction, identify an end-of-data indicator associated with the second data, and deactivate the receive circuitry in response to the end-of-data indicator. Preferably, in some embodiments, the receive circuitry is selectively switched off to reduce power consumption.
