Abstract
A cable assembly has a cable with a transceiver module on one end. The transceiver module is plugged into an interface connector of a circuit card, which also has a network interface controller chip, an onboard non-volatile memory, and a control unit. The control unit reads cable assembly data stored in a non-volatile memory of the transceiver module over a serial bus and copies the cable assembly data to the onboard non-volatile memory. The control unit initiates transfer of the cable assembly data from the onboard non-volatile memory to a communication port of the network interface controller chip over another serial bus.
