Abstract
The present disclosure provides techniques for downshifting in 100BASE-T1L Ethernet. A device sends a first capability data frame to a connected peer device via a 100BASE-T1L interface. The device receives a second capability data frame from the connected peer device via the 100BASE-T1L interface. The device determines a first highest common denominator (HCD) for network speed based on the first and second capability data frames. The device establishes a network link with the connected peer device via the 100BASE-T1L interface using the first HCD for network speed. The device monitors a quality of the network link. Upon determining that the quality of the network link falls below a defined threshold, the device sends a third capability data frame to the connected peer device that excludes the first HCD for network speed.
