External connections
CB6464 19 Version: 0.4
6.5 Front panel: LAN1-4 (X102-X105)
The board has four Gigabit-LAN connections, which are implemented with two standard connectors, each
with two connections. Network components compatible with 10BaseT, 100BaseT and 1000BaseT can be
connected to all of them. The required speed is selected automatically. Auto-Cross and Auto-Negotiate are
available as well as PXE, RPL and WOL functionality. Intel® i219 (PHY) is the controller for LAN1, while
Intel® i210 (MAC/PHY) is used as the controller for LAN 2 to 4.
Real-time applications
The Ethernet port connected via PCIe is usually suitable for cycle times <= 1 ms and for distributed
clock applications with EtherCAT.
The Ethernet port integrated in the chipset is usually suitable for real-time Ethernet applications with
cycle times > 1 ms (without distributed clocks).
