Summary:A method and apparatus for sending side-channel bits on an Ethernet cable. An Ethernet device includes an encoder, a controller, and a signal processor. The encoder may encode payload bits to generate an encoded frame including the payload bits, zero bits, and parity bits. The zero bits are added to the payload bits before encoding. The controller may send side-channel data to the encoder so that the zero bits are replaced with the side-channel bits. The signal processor modulates the encoded frame with the side-channel bits and transmit on an Ethernet cable. The payload bits may be encoded by using low density parity check (LDPC) (1723,2048) code.
