PCI/104 Express Bus Interface

The EXP-ETH8 uses x16 link of the PCI/104-Express bus. Which link is used depends if the board is stacked-up
or stacked -down.
On the module there is a PCI Express switch that detects the type of connection and forwards the other links
according to the specification.

The EXP-ETH8 can be used with the Hurricane-QM57.

At the Hurricane-QM57 you can stack-up one EXP-ETH8. Theoretical could be connected two EXP-ETH8, but
then they are limited to 4 Ethernet Ports at each add-on. The reason for this is the limitation of the I/O space
(and also therefore the devices) in the PCI-to-PCI bridge specification.
