  1. Response to Comments Tried to answer all questions that were received by 19:00, Jul. 30 Comments mainly fall into a few categories and can be answered globally: • Typos, improvement on phrasing • Generally accepted, will be dealt with • Request to add more details (textual description and drawings, including reference to gFEX) • Generally accepted, will be dealt with • Technical details, in particular latency • Yes, will be added. Assume no major differences to eFEX figures, except: • PMA loopback latency is higher (1-1.5 BX estimate) • Parallel transmission latency figures (to neighbour FPGA) similar (tbc), but nowhere in the system PMA and parallel re-transmission are cascaded • Transmission to merger same figure • Regarding algorithms, expect to benefit from improved UltraScale performance

  2. … • Component availability • Prototype using engineering silicon, in contact to distributor • Questions about 12.8 Gb/s on inputs and outputs • 12.8 Gb/s operation has been verified in recent past on L1Topo prototype (Virtex-7 GTH, MiniPOD), even though focus has been on 6.4Gb/s operation • Extensive tests will take place well before jFEX prototype production, on L1Topo spare modules • Consider L1Topo a demonstrator for jFEX • jFEX prototype is basically more of the same, re-targeted to UltraScale • Questions about impact of gFEX on jFEX capabilities • The overlap between jFEX and gFEX capabilities is intentional and has been judged as important to reduce risk for the phase 1 project. The gFEX endorsement includes a strong recommendation to pursue the full capabilities of the jFEX system at high link speeds
