Carrier Extension7 L4 t' I/ U7 U
Gigabit Ethernet should be inter-operable with existing 802.3 networks. Carrier Extension is a way of maintaining 802.3 minimum and maximum frame sizes with meaningful cabling distances. For carrier extended frames, the non-data extension symbols are included in the "collision window", that is, the entire extended frame is considered for collision and dropped. However, the Frame Check Sequence (FCS) is calculated only on the original (without extension symbols) frame. The extension symbols are removed before the FCS is checked by the receiver. So the LLC (Logical Link Control) layer is not even aware of the carrier extension. Fig. 1 shows the ethernet frame format when Carrier Extension is used. |
