This is a reference design, distributed in our favourite format, self extracting exe file. ftp://ftp.altera.com/outgoing/devkit/12.1/cycloneIVGX_4cgx150_fpga_v12.1.0.exe In there is a *.pdf file showing the multi-port caps. Altera seems to have a thing for them. So does Freescale. It seems to be a happening thing. Yes, they are more expensive. There are multiple suppliers, I assume this means multiple patent licensees. The BOM reduction comes about from needing less of them from what I can see.
