The LAN PHY encodes the 10.0 Gb/s data stream from the MAC to a 10.3125 Gb/s signal using the 64B/66B Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS). The WAN PHY uses the same PCS operating in rate adaptation mode to ensure the output data stream will match the payload carrying capacity of a SONET OC-192 signal (or equivalently an SDH STM-64). The WAN PHY also incorporates the WAN Interface Sublayer (WIS) to provide a simplified SONET framer function as well as the complement of SONET/SDH compatible MIBs. The output of the WIS is an OC-192 frame compatible signal. The only difference between the LAN PHY and the WAN PHY is the WIS sublayer. Both share the same PCS and serial Physical Medium Attachment (PMA) and Physical Medium Dependent (PMD) sublayers. In this way, the cost benefit from economies of scale applies to both PHY types.
