There are limits to how much lossless data compression can compress and increase the payload of a TCP/IP data packet.

The value of compression for data protection over TCP/IP WANs by Thompson, Steve / Computer Technology Review

Aurora is the first protocol to provide a transparent interface to upper layers of proprietary or industry standard protocols, such as Ethernet or TCP/IP, allowing any data packet to be encapsulated and sent between chips, boards and boxes.

XILINX: OPEN PROTOCOL INITIATIVE FOR SCALABLE SERIAL CONNECTIVITY by EDP Weekly's IT Monitor

7,058,020 covers a technique for time-stamping a data packet, which permits the measurement of network characteristics - such as one-way and round-trip latency and jitter - to within one microsecond, and eliminates the uncertainties typically associated with software processing and system load.
