2.2.5. PMA Adaptation Parameters

After device configuration, you may need to trigger PMA adaptation on the RX interface to achieve optimal performance. The PMA interface performs adaptation for initial adaptation and continuous adaptation which runs continuously in background.
Figure 27. PMA Adaptation OptionsYou specify settings on the PMA Adaptation tab for both initial and continuous adaptation. PMA Adaptation is only available for E-tile variants.
