Wow, it's been 3 years. Time has flew by quick. With the latest process advances, serial transceivers & even standard IO operating in LVDS or CML modes are ridiculously fast. FPGA IO bandwidth is not an issue. You can have as much as you want on the cheapest FPGAs. The bigger problem is the control of all this data, RTOS & cpus are just too slow. Cable bandwidth hasn't improved too much but HDMI cables are cheap now. Sorry for not finishing the exercise.

Ethernet Switch 2Port Gb 100Mb
Top trace = 100Mb send TX DV, 2nd trace = Gb receive, RX DV
3rd trace = Gb send TX DV, bottom trace = 100Mb RX DV
The duration of the active high DV signals = packet size.
