6.3. Ethernet Connectors (CN9 & CN10)
The 3.5"-eIO-GPA supports two channels of 10/100/1000/2500 Mbit Ethernet, which are based Intel® I225-LM/IT
controllers.
In order to achieve the specified performance of the Ethernet port, Category 5 twisted pair cables must be used with
10/100 MByte and Category 5E, 6 or 6E with 1 Gbit/2.5Gbit LAN networks.
The signals for the Ethernet ports are as follows:

Signal Description
Signal Description
TX1+ / TX1-
In MDI mode, this is the first pair in 2.5GBase-T and 1000Base-T, i.e. the BI_DA+/- pair, and
is the transmit pair in 10Base-T and 100Base-TX. In MDI crossover mode, this pair acts as
the BI_DB+/- pair, and is the receive pair in 10Base-T and 100Base-TX.
TX2+ / TX2- In MDI mode, this is the second pair in 2.5GBase-T and 1000Base-T, i.e. the BI_DB+/- pair,
and is the receive pair in 10Base-T and 100Base-TX. In MDI crossover mode, this pair acts
as the BI_DA+/- pair, and is the transmit pair in 10Base-T and 100Base-TX.
TX3+ / TX3- In MDI mode, this is the third pair in 2.5GBase-T and 1000Base-T, i.e. the BI_DC+/- pair. In
MDI crossover mode, this pair acts as the BI_DD+/- pair.
TX4+ / TX4- In MDI mode, this is the fourth pair in 2.5GBase-T and 1000Base-T, i.e. the BI_DD+/- pair.In
MDI crossover mode, this pair acts as the BI_DC+/- pair.
