[0008] The aforementioned SerDes is the abbreviation of serializer and deserializer, and the SerDes transmission technology (high-speed serial data transmission technology) based on SerDes is a technology used to serialize parallel data sequences into high-speed serial data streams and then recombine them into the original parallel data at the receiving end.

[0009] Furthermore, the first physical layer chip, the second physical layer chip, the third physical layer chip, and the fourth physical layer chip each output one optical port.
