I have a device which sends serial data @ 1gbps using TI's TLK1501 using proprietary poin to point protocol (does not use ethernet frame) just like simple serial protocol. Can I fed this data to Ethernet port of PC with Gigabit network adapter and read it?
How do I read data available at physical layer of ethernet with software?
The physical layer used by this interface is completely different from Gigabit Ethernet over twisted pair (1000BASE-T sublayer). You may want to review IEEE802.3 for a description of the different physical ethernet layers.
