2.8 Ethernet Management Interface
The T2080 has two Ethernet Management Interfaces (EMI), both powered by LVDD.
However, EMI2 is only used with XFI based PHYs, which uses 1.2 V pull-up. EMI1 is
used with all other non-XFI based PHYs, including the onboard RGMII PHYs. The
image below shows the EMI hardware block.
