Hello Dan, Thanks for your response. We already have the board <https://www.abaco.com/products/fmc424-fpga-mezzanine-card> (FMC424 - dual QSFP+ FPGA mezzanine card.). We just wanted to see if we can reuse some of the software/IPs you have implemented to get the QSFP+ module up and running. Does the 100Gbit ethernet block have some documentation that I can read that will help me integrate it into our system?
