The location of the transceiver bank boundaries are important for clocking resources, bonding channels, and fitting. The transceivers are grouped in transceiver banks of three and six channels.

Within a transceiver bank the lowest numbered pin name is channel 0 of that bank and the highest numbered pin name of the bank is channel 5.
