Abstract: A pluggable module, for testing time-synchronization signals of network elements, includes a first connector for connecting to test equipment, a second connector for connecting to a network port of a network element, and at least one driver. The at least one driver is connected between the first and second connectors and is configured to buffer and relay a time-synchronization signal between the network element and the test equipment.

Abstract: A system includes a communication bus, a controller device, and a target device. The controller device and the target device may transition between different communication protocols in association with transferring data over the communication bus. The target device may receive a transaction command including a slave address. Based on the slave address, the target device may determine a communication protocol associated with transferring data in association with the transaction command. A first communication protocol may include a message protocol, and the message protocol may be associated with an I2C communication protocol or an I3C communication protocol. The second communication protocol may include a bus protocol, and the bus protocol may be associated with the I2C communication protocol.
