A network controller receives link metrics for network links on cables between network devices in a communication network. The link metrics include metrics indicative of crosstalk experienced by network links among the network links on cables. The network controller determines, based at least in part on the link metrics, respective link settings for respective network links among the network links. The link settings are determined to mitigate crosstalk experienced by the respective network links as a result of transmission of signals in at least some of the network links at baud rates that correspond to bandwidths that exceed maximum bandwidth ratings of respective cables of the corresponding ones of the network links. The network controller causes configuration of the respective network links based on the link settings to optimize performance across the plurality of network links in the communication network.

An operation method of a network device and a control chip of the network device are provided. The network device receives an input signal through a fiber medium. The operation method includes the following steps: setting a target speed of the network device to a first speed; transmitting and/or receiving a data at the first speed; and setting the target speed of the network device to a second speed which is different from the first speed when the amplitude or energy of the input signal is not greater than a threshold.

In one embodiment, a processor of a vehicle detects a difference between a physical characteristic of the vehicle predicted by a first machine learning-based model and a physical characteristic of the vehicle indicated by telemetry data generated by a sub-system of the vehicle. The processor forms a packet payload of an update packet indicative of the detected difference, based in part on a relevancy of the physical characteristic to the first machine learning-based model. The processor applies a synchronization strategy to the update packet, to synchronize the update packet with a second machine learning-based model executed by a receiver. The processor sends the update packet to the receiver via a network, to update the second machine learning-based model.

In a method for establishing a communication link between a first network interface device and a second network interface device comprises, the second network interface device receives a training signal transmitted by the first network interface device. The training signal is for timing synchronization between the second network interface device and the first network interface device. The second network interface device determines, based on at least one physical characteristic of the training signal, a physical layer (PHY) parameter of the first network interface device. A controller of the second network interface device configures one or more components of the second network interface device to operate in a mode that corresponds to the determined PHY operating parameter of the first network interface device.

Embodiments described herein provided methods and apparatus for controlling switching a power supply of a first network node between an electrical power grid and an alternative power supply in which the first network node is configured to transmit data to a second network node over a data transmission link. The method includes receiving first information indicative of a predicted decrease in a transmission rate of data transmitted by the first network node over the data transmission link. Responsive to receiving the first information, a first request is transmitted to the first network node to switch the power supply of the first network node from the electrical power grid to the alternative power supply.

Systems and methods for configuring the operation of recording devices that may be removably mounted to a mount. A mount may provide a unique identifier. The unique identifier may be used to select a configuration profile for configuring the operation of the recording device coupled to the mount. A recording device that is moved from one mount to another may receive a different profile in accordance with the identifier of the new mount to control the operation of the recording device while mounted to the new mount. A server may store, retrieve, and provide profiles to recording devices.
