An external CPLD logic is required to take the link signals and collision signals from the GPSI PHYS and shift them
into the switch device. The switch device will drive out a signature to indicate the start of the sequence. After that,
the CPLD should shift in the link and collision status of the PHYS as shown in the figure. The extra link status
indicates the polarity of the link signal. One indicates the polarity of the link signal is active high.

A serial output channel provides port status information from the ZL50417 chips. It requires three additional pins.
LED_CLK at 12.5 MHz
LED_SYN a sync pulse that defines the boundary between status frames
LED_DATA a continuous serial stream of data for all status LEDs that repeats once every frame time
A non-serial interface is also allowed, but in this case, only the Gigabit ports will have status LEDs.
A low cost external device (44 pin PAL) is used to decode the serial data and to drive an LED array for display. This
device can be customized for different needs.

In the ZL50417, each port has 8 status indicators, each represented by a single bit. The 8 LED status indicators
are:
