    Abstract: A network interface includes a physical layer device coupled to a network link. A media access control module communicates with a link partner over the network link. An energy controller monitors a link utilization level of the network link and transitions, in response to the monitoring, the media access control module and the physical layer device to a low power idle mode, wherein the low power idle mode includes periodic transmission of a plurality of refresh frames in a refresh cycle and wherein at least one of the plurality of refresh frames is modified to include at least one first data payload.

    Abstract translation: 网络接口包括耦合到网络链路的物理层设备。 媒体访问控制模块通过网络链路与链路伙伴进行通信。 能量控制器监视网络链路的链路利用水平并响应于监视将媒体访问控制模块和物理层设备转换到低功率空闲模式,其中低功率空闲模式包括多个 的刷新周期中的刷新帧,并且其中所述多个刷新帧中的至少一个被修改为包括至少一个第一数据有效载荷。
