Abstract
Apparatuses for controlling data transaction between master and slave devices are described. A master port connected to a master device can include a voltage regulator, a bridging circuit connected to a network element, and a redriver circuit. In response to a data transaction corresponding to a first type of data transaction, the master port can activate the voltage regulator and deactivate the redriver circuit to support a first operation mode causing the master device to perform the data transaction with a slave device via the network element. In response to the data transaction corresponding to a second type of data transaction, the master port can deactivate the voltage regulator and activate the redriver circuit to support a second operation mode causing the master port to disconnect from a slave port connected to the slave device and the data transaction is fulfilled by a circuit connected to the slave device.
