    Hi,

    Also, I noticed that in the L tile userguide there is a note under 5.9. Loopback Modes chapter

    Note: Intel Stratix 10 transceiver channels configured in GXT mode do not support Pre-CDR reverse serial loopback and Post-CDR reverse serial loopback.

    When I open the toolkit and the toolkit shows the data rate to be 20.625Gbps, but reverse-Serial Loopback option is still available with the dropdown button.

    With Regards,
