The Port 5 GMAC5 SW5-GMII interface operates at up to 1000 Mbps. In 1Gbps mode, GMII supports the full-duplex
only. The GMII interface is 8-bits data in each direction. Additional signals on the transmit side indicate when data is
valid or when an error occurs during transmission. Likewise, the receive side has indicators that convey when the data
is valid and without physical layer errors. For half-duplex operation in 10/100 Mbps mode, there is a COL signal that
indicates a collision has occurred during transmission.

Receive Clock
The RGMII interface operates at up to a 1000 Mbps speed rate. Additional transmit and receive signals control the dif-
ferent direction of the data transfer. This RGMII interface supports RGMII Rev 2.0 with adjustable ingress clock and
egress clock delay by the Register 86 (0x56).
For RGMII to correctly configure with the connection partner, Register 86 (0x56) bits [4:3] need to be set up correctly. A
configuration table is found in Table 3-11.
