Abstract
A system for transmitting data to a first circuit that transmits and receives data at a first rate from a second circuit that transmits data at second rate that is greater than the first rate. This invention includes an interface that transmits pause frames to the second circuit in response to an event in order to halt transmission from the second circuit to the first circuit. The second circuit then halts transmitting data until a message to resume transmission is received.
