Bi-directional SerDes for Scale-Up - Line hint:

Context Before
This gives rise to the engineering problem of ensuring that a clean signal can be received at either end of the wire because two signals sent in opposite directions over the same copper wire will superpose to form a composite signal that is different from the intended transmitting signal.
In optics, bidirectional interconnect can be achieved by integrating an optical circulator to a transceiver as discussed in our TPUv7 article ↗ published late last year. The circulator works by routing the inbound and outbound signal onto separate paths ↗, ensuring no overlaps between both at the photodiode receiver. Bidirectional interconnect is, however, much trickier in the copper domain. A circulator cannot be used as copper cables are linear transmission lines, which means that the inbound and outbound signals will be summed at the receiver through superposition. The receiver at each end of the copper wire therefore needs a mechanism to separate the local TX from the local RX.
Evidence
The solution to this problem is the use of a hybrid at each end of the wire
Context After
B0+A0=BA0
An inverted copy of the local TX must therefore be generated at the local RX for proper echo cancellation:
