Abstract
An Ethernet transceiver is disclosed. The Ethernet transceiver includes transceiver circuitry to couple to one end of an Ethernet link. The transceiver circuitry includes transmit circuitry to transmit high-speed Ethernet data along the Ethernet link at a first data rate and receiver circuitry. The receiver circuitry includes adaptive filter circuitry and correlator circuitry. The receiver circuitry is responsive to an inline signal to operate in a low-power alert mode with the adaptive filter circuitry disabled and to receive alert signals from the Ethernet link simultaneous with transmission of the Ethernet data by the transmit circuitry. The alert signals are detected by the correlator circuitry and include a sequence of alert intervals exhibiting encoded data at a second data rate less than the first data rate.
