Re: [802.3AZ] Question about Tw parameter in table 24-2 vs. Tw_sys_tx in table 78-4

[Mike Bennett <mjbennett@xxxxxxx>]

John,

Sorry it has taken so long to answer.  The Tw_sys_tx value in table 78-4 
is a minimum, so the 30 microsecond value is consistent with the minimum 
value of the Wake line state, Tw.

Regards,

Mike
