The link segment is not AC-coupled. We can explicitly preclude AC-coupling in the link segment by adding a sentence for those concerned of
the possibility.
165.7 Link segment characteristics -
Add sentence end of paragraph
AC-coupling shall not be implemented within
the link segment (between TP1 and TP4).
The link segment IL limit should not be changed from 10MHz to 2MHz on the basis of baseline wander attributed to HPF corner frequency in https://www.ieee802.org/3/cy/public/nov21/feyh_3cy_01b_01_11_09_21.pdf.
