Configuration Switches
Equalization and Deemphasis can be configured separately for RX lane [0-3] and RX lane [4-7] and
TX lane [0-3] and TX lane [4-7]. The configuration switches are grouped and can be set to on (1) and off (0).
Three switches form a mutual group, e.g. switch[1..3]=> parameter EQ0. Within a group only one switch
must be on.
Driver settings for RX and TX will match in most cases.
