Abstract: An adapter device is provided that is configured to interface with a host device according to a first communication standard via a first connector and with a transceiver module according to a second communication standard via a second connector. The adapter device detects that the transceiver module has connected to the adapter device. The adapter device retrieves transceiver module identifier information from the transceiver module and converts the transceiver module identifier information to the first communication standard. The converted transceiver module identifier information and adapter device identifier information are sent to the host device.

Abstract: An optics module sends, to a host module, a pin signal indicating that an optics module is plugged into the host module, wherein the optics module is configured to operate at at least a first data rate and a second data rate. The optics module receives, from the host module, an indication of a host data rate. The optics module determines whether there is clock and data recovery loss of lock between the first data rate and a host data rate. If it is determined that there is clock and data recovery loss of lock between the first data rate and the host data rate, the optics module initializes at the second data rate if the second data rate matches the host data rate.
