3.3.8 Egress Data Packet and Control Packet Format
The egress data packet and control packet format for the PowerPRS Q-64G 16-Gbps configuration is
presented in Figure 3-6. The packet qualifier byte (H0) is described in Tables 3-20 and 3-21. Header bytes H1
and H2 of egress data packets and control packets are identical to those of egress idle packets (see Tables
3-12 through 3-16).
