1. When high, the link is valid: synchronization of the link has been obtained and Auto-Negotiation (if present and enabled) has
completed.
When low, a valid link has not been established. Either link synchronization has failed or Auto-Negotiation (if present and
enabled) has failed to complete.
Regardless of whether Auto-Negotiation is enabled or disabled, there can be some delay to the deassertion of this signal
following the loss of synchronization of a previously successful link. This is due to the Auto-Negotiation state machine which
requires that synchronization is lost for an entire link timer duration before changing state. For more information, see the 802.3
specification.
