Bits 7 to 0: Bit Error Count (BEC[23:16]) - Upper 8-bits of Register.
Bit Error Count (BEC[23:0]) – These twenty-four bits indicate the number of bit errors detected in the incoming
data stream. This count stops incrementing when it reaches a count of FF FFFFh. This bit error counter will not
increment when an OOS condition exists. This register is updated via the PMU signal (see section 9.4.5
)
