Zusammenfassung:A networking adaptor and method of transferring data are depicted and described herein. One example of the networking adaptor is provided with a host interface and a network interface. The network interface may include a transmit portion and a receive portion. The transmit portion may include a first set of data paths and the receive portion may include a second set of data paths. Both the first set of data paths and second set of data paths are configurable to be aggregated or de-aggregated to support a single port operation that represents a combined bandwidth of the data paths in the first set of data paths or the second set of data paths.
