(2) will G-link be available as dies by the time needed. Do we have to reconsider connectors. (3) some chips allow for wide clock range. Most require 8b/10b encode by user (4) is the modularity acceptable? Availability? Do we need any fall-back solution at all ? If so, do we have to carry out tests ?
