Reed-Solomon Forward Error Correction (RS-FEC) provides a robust multi-bit
error detection and correction algorithm that protects the full 100 Gigabit data
stream. This appendix describes the integration of the RS-FEC engine within the AMDUltraScale+ device
integrated 100G Ethernet IP. For a detailed description of the RS-FEC sublayer,
refer to IEEE 802.3bj-2014 Clause 91 .
