5.1 Introduction
The POD-6704 is equipped with a high performance Intel 82562ET
32-bit Ethernet chipset. This is a highly integrated Platform LAN
Connect (ICH2/3/4) device combining 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX
physical layer capabilities. It is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3/
802.3u standard. The IEEE 802.3u standard for 100BASE-TX defines
networking over two pairs of Category 5 unshielded twisted pair
cable. The 82562ET complies with the IEEE 802.3u Auto-Negotiation
(and 100BASE-TX) standard and the IEEE 802.3x Full-Duplex Flow
Control standard.
The Ethernet port provides a standard RJ-45 jack on board. The
network boot feature can be utilized by incorporating the boot ROM
image files for the appropriate network operating system. The boot
ROM BIOS files are combined with system BIOS, which can be
enabled/disabled in the BIOS setup.
