Chapter 2: Hardware Description
The Telum GE-QT is a highly integrated AMC I/O telecommunication module that supports
high-performance carrier-grade network services to provide a wide range of high throughput
Ethernet applications.
Hardware Overview
The Telum GE-QT is accessed by the host through an AMC interconnect running a x4 PCI Express
(PCIe) that complies with AMC.1 specification. The PCIe Switch connects to two Intel® 82571EB
Dual Gigabit Ethernet Controllers. Each Ethernet Controller appears to the host as an independent
PCIe device. Each Controller is a multifunctional device with two Ethernet ports that appear to the
host as two separate functions. Each function has a complete register set and implements 64-bit
address mode.
The Telum GE-QT contains the following components as shown in Figure 2:
•
Dual Gigabit Ethernet Controller
•
PCI Express Switch
•
IPMI Controller with module management
•
Four RJ-45 Connectors
•
AMC Connector
•
Front panel hot-swap and status LEDs
