Notes to Table 1–6:
(1) Data rates above 6.5536 Gbps up to 10.3125 Gbps, such as 10GBASE-R, are supported through soft PCS.
(2) PCIe Gen2 is supported with the PCIe hard IP only.
(3) The 0.27-Gbps data rate is supported using oversampling user logics that you must implement in the FPGA fabric.
(4) CPRI data rates above 6.5536 Gbps, such as 9.8304 Gbps, are supported through soft PCS.
(5) The GPON standard does not support burst mode.
