GXB transceiver between two fpgas

Hello I want to establish communication between two fpgas over gxb transcievers. I will use two cyclone iv gx devices. My question is can I send signals from gxb banks (pins) through lvds cable...

Defenetly ... 10Gbps is too much for my design ... but is it good to know that cable will support at least 1.6Gbps

My follow up question is ... can altera components, altgx and altgx_reconfig, be controlled by external logic other then Nios?

My application needs speed ... and Nios would be a bottle-neck that i would like to avoid.
