Question

In PCIe architecture, a single, full-duplex, point-to-point serial communication path consisting of two pairs of wires (where one pair is used to transmit data and the other pair is used to receive data) is called a _____.

1) PCIe bus
2) PCIe slot
3) PCIe link
4) PCIe lane

Answer 1

The term for the point-to-point communication path in PCIe architecture, which includes two pairs of wires for full-duplex data transmission, is a PCIe lane.

Step-by-step explanation:

In PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) architecture, a single, full-duplex, point-to-point serial communication path consisting of two pairs of wires (where one pair is used to transmit data and the other pair is used to receive data) is called a PCIe lane. The correct answer to the question is option 4) PCIe lane. Each PCIe lane consists of two differential signaling pairs, with one pair for sending data and the other for receiving, enabling simultaneous two-way communication between devices.
