ofb_multilane

Multi-Lane layer of OpenFibre (ECSS-E-ST-50-11C clause 5.6) for 1 to 4 lanes: lane manager with unidirectional and hot redundant lanes (ML-1), row distributor (ML-2), column codec with data scrambling and the data frame CRC-16 per lane (ML-3, ML-4), lane alignment (ML-5) and row concentrator (ML-6). With one lane it is the Multi-Lane bypass of ECSS 5.6.3.
