Figure 3-1
shows the connections between the FMC (HPC), the 88E1111 Ethernet PHY,
and RJ-45 connector. Ethernet PHY 88E1111 function are controlled by the management
interface via NETx_MDC and NETx_MDIO. There is a LED used to indicate the status of
1000BASE-T link via NETx_LED_LINK1000.
The 88E1111 device incorporates the Marvell Virtual Cable Tester(VCT) feature, which
uses Time Domain Reflectometry(TDR) technology for the remote identification of potential
cable malfunctions, thus reducing equipment returns and service calls. Using VCT, the
88E1111 device detects and reports potential cabling issues such as pair swaps, pair
polarity and excessive pair skew.
The 88E1111 device uses advanced mixed-signal processing to perform equalization, echo
and crosstalk cancellation, data recovery, and error correction at a gigabit per second data
rate. The device achieves robust performance in noisy environments with very low power
dissipation.
