Abstract
A method and apparatus for receiving one of a plurality of Ethernet transmission protocol signals is disclosed. Each transmission protocol signal includes a plurality of transmission signal streams. The method includes determining which of the transmission protocol signals is being received. An analog front-end processor is connected to one of a plurality of protocol digital processors based on the transmission protocol signal being received. A setting of at least one functional parameter of the analog front-end processor and/or the protocol digital processors is selected based on the transmission protocol signal being received. A sampling rate of the analog front-end processor and/or a processing rate of the protocol digital processors are selected based on the transmission protocol signal being received. The plurality of transmission signal streams of the transmission protocol signal being received by the analog front-end processor are ADC sampled based on a shared clock source.
