Introduction
The VSC8664 device is a low-power, quad-port Gigabit Ethernet transceiver with four SerDes interfaces
for quad-port dual media capability. It includes an integrated quad port I C multiplexer (MUX) to control
2
SFPs or PoE modules. The VSC8664 includes two recovered clock outputs to support Synchronous
Ethernet applications.
This document describes the architecture and usage of the VSC8664 Evaluation Board (VSC8634
/VSC8664EV). The board may be used to evaluate a family of devices which include the VSC8634,
VSC8662, and VSC8664. These devices vary with respect to the number of ports, supported interfaces,
and available features. This document specifically addresses the VSC8664 device. The Quick Start section
describes how to bring-up the evaluation board along with install and run the graphical user interface
(GUI), used to control the evaluation board.
