摘要: A method and apparatus of a network element that includes line card without retimers between an ASIC either connector or mid-plane is described. In exemplary embodiment, the coupled to fabric card. The plurality mid-place connectors, application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs). addition, one connectors couple with Furthermore, communicate data devices each ASICs process data. further configured such by different - path boosting signal on -ASIC path.
