Abstract
A mapper physical layer device (PHY) is disclosed that performs a protocol conversion of an input data stream that is formatted according to a first wired communication protocol to provide an output data stream that is formatted according to a second wired communication protocol. The mapper PHY can be synchronized to a common reference clock or clocking source to ensure that data streams provided by multiple mapper PHYs are sufficiently aligned to satisfy frame timing alignment accuracy requirements of a wireless communication protocol.
