Abstract :
CTBI provides a simple mechanism that bonds multiple levels of multiple lanes (electrical and optical) in a single step through 66-bit block striping with low overhead and no need lo backpressure or flow control the MAC layer, and allows for a very simple optical module even if the number of optical lanes and electrical lanes are not equal (in / n).
