9.5.2.2Transmitter signal characteristics

Table 17 specifies the signal requirements at the transmitter end of a TxRx connection as measured into the zero-length test load. All specifications are based on differential measurements.

The OOB sequence is performed at signal voltage levels corresponding to the lowest supported transfer rate. Table 17 specifies the signal characteristics.
