A.2.2.3.  10/100Mbps Ethernet Port

The SOMDB1 carrier board comes with a 10/100Mbps Ethernet port which uses an 8 Position 8 Contact (8P8C) 

receptacle connector commonly referred to as RJ-45. It is fully compliant with IEEE 802.3 (10BASE-T) and 

802.3u (100BASE-TX). The pinouts of the 10/100Mbps Ethernet port are shown below. 

Table 26:  10/100Mbps Ethernet port pinouts

The 10/100Mbps Ethernet port (RJ-45) is equipped with two LED indicators on the front side to show its Active/

Link status and Speed status.

A.2.2.4.  Headphone Jack 

The SOMDB1 carrier board comes with a headphone jack which offers High Definition Audio sounds through 

the 3.5mm Tip Ring Sleeve (TRS) connector to enable connections to Line-out. The headphone jack is for 

connecting to external speakers or headphones. The diagram of the headphone jack is shown below.
