The ATCA channel descriptors define the ATCA channels implemented on a module. Each
channel has an arbitrary set of up to four ports. Channel descriptors map physical ports to
logical entities known as lanes, see

Table 7-51

.

7.21.1 Base Point-to-Point Connectivity

The ATCA-9305 supports two 10/100/1000BASE-T ports on Base Interface Channels 0 and 1,
and two 10 GbE XAUI ports to the Fabric channels. Depending on the board configuration,
either two or six 10 GbE XAUI ports route to the optional rear transition module (RTM). see

Table 7-51

shows the Point-to-point Connectivity Record Link Descriptors for the ATCA-9305.

Certain Ethernet core switch and fat pipe switch module GbE switch ports are disabled due to
lack of e-keying support in the monitor.

For actual Point-to-Point connectivity Records for your configuration, query the IPMI
controller.
