Ethernet connector
It is possible to connect the carrier board to a network by
using the Gigabit/FastEthernet interface offered by the
Qseven
®
module used.
For this purpose, onboard there is a Gigabit Ethernet
connector, CN39, type Tyco Electronics p/n 2-406549-8 or
equivalent,
CN39 provide direct access to the Ethernet signals directly managed by the Qseven
®
modules-
On the connectors there are also two bicolour Green/Yellow LEDs.
LED1 (Left LED) is driven by Qseven
®
connector
’
s signal GBE_LINK#, and shows Link connection: when it is lit, detects the availability of the connection, when the
LED is Off then no connection is available.
LED2 (Right LED) is driven by Qseven
®
connector
’
s signal GBE_ACT#, and shows ACTIVITY presence.
Other two LEDs on the carrier board are located near connector CN39. D33 is a green LED, driven by Qseven
®
connector
’
s signal GBE_LINK100#, and shows
the availability of a 10/100Mbps connection.
D34, driven by Qseven
®
connector
’
s signal GBE_LINK1000#, shows the availability of a 1Gbps connection.
The interface available on connector CN39 is compatible both with Gigabit Ethernet (1000Mbps) and with Fast Ethernet (10/100Mbps) Networks. It will configure
automatically to work with the existing network.
Please be aware that it will work in Gigabit mode only in case that they are connected to Gigabit Ethernet switches/hubs/routers. For the connection, cables
category Cat5e or better are required. Cables category Cat6 are recommended for noise reduction and EMC compatibility issues, especially when the length of
the cable is significant.
GB/GBEx_MDI0-: Ethernet Controller #x Media Dependent Interface (MDI) I/O differential pair #0. It is the first differential pair in Gigabit Ethernet mode,
and the Transmit differential pair in 10/100 Mbps modes.
GB/GBEx_MDI1-: Ethernet Controller #x Media Dependent Interface (MDI) I/O differential pair #1. It is the second differential pair in Gigabit Ethernet
mode, and the Receive differential pair in 10/100 Mbps modes.
GB/GBEx_MDI2-: Ethernet Controller #x Media Dependent Interface (MDI) I/O differential pair #2. It is the third differential pair in Gigabit Ethernet mode; it
is not used in 10/100Mbps modes.
GB/GBEx_MDI3-: Ethernet Controller #x Media Dependent Interface (MDI) I/O differential pair #3. It is the fourth differential pair in Gigabit Ethernet mode;
it is not used in 10/100Mbps modes.
