ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are a system and method of transmitting data frames between media independent interfaces (MIIs) in a bus conversion device. Data frames received at a first MII may be formatted according to a first data transmission protocol. A bus conversion device formats the data frame for forwarding to a second MII. The bus conversion device may transmit data frames between MIIs having different associated data rates and data frame formats.
