To minimize consumption of routing resources, the various clock and data signals take on different functions depending on the configured MRMAC operating mode. The following table details the meaning of the various clock and data signals for the given MRMAC configuration settings. For FEC only modes, data/clocks are shared with the transceiver interface.

The `fec_tx_dout_start` and `fec_rx_din_start` are only used in the FEC only modes and clocked by `alt_serdes_clk`.

The design must satisfy several rules when connecting the MRMAC to the transceivers. See the Transceiver Selection Rules section for details.
