Some demonstrative embodiments include devices, systems and methods of transferring information between elements of a communication device. For example, a device may include a front-end to receive an analog downstream input including a plurality of downstream data channels, and to provide a digital serial downstream output including at least one continuous stream of constant-size downstream frames including a plurality of constant-size downstream data frames, which include downstream sample data of the plurality of downstream data channels; a serial interface including at least one serial lane to transfer the at least on stream of the digital serial downstream output; and a processor to receive the digital serial downstream over the serial interface, and to process the downstream data frames.
