Board-Specific Information
Specific board components involved in the Ethernet communications and data handling pro-
cess are:
• Front panel connectors:
• Five RJ45 connectors with two integrated bicolor LEDs per channel
• Gigabit Ethernet switch:
• One five-port or eight-port Gigabit Ethernet switch, depending on the variant
• One CompactPCI connector
• One 4-pin ATX power connector to be used optionally as power source if the CP932 is
used as a standalone application (only on the five-channel variant)
• Two onboard dual switching voltage regulators
• Magnetics chips for galvanic isolation of each channel
1.2.3
System Level Interfacing
Depending on the variant, there are two different possibilities to integrate the CP932 into a sys-
tem. The CP932 is equipped with a CompactPCI Connector for integration within a Compact-
PCI System.
On the five-channel variant, the CompactPCI connector is used only for delivering the power.
If the ATX power connector is used as power source, the CP932 operates as a standalone ap-
plication, i.e. no backplane is necessary.
On the six-channel variant, the CompactPCI connector is used both for connecting the power
supply and for the PCI interfacing.
Warning!
Either the CompactPCI connector or the ATX power connector may be used at
the same time. Failure to comply with the above may result in damage to your
board.
