COMX-P40x0 ENP2 Installation and Use (6806800R95C)

7.20 Network

The COMX-P40x0 ENP2 module has two frame managers. Each one supports five native
network interfaces broken down into four 1 GB Ethernet interfaces (DTSEC) and one 10 GB
Ethernet interface (TGEC). Due to limitations in the CPU and frame manager, only 12 Gbps is
supported. This does not allow the DTSEC and one XAUI to work the line speed at the same
time at 14 Gbps.

Because of these limitations, the COMX-P40x0-ENP2 powers down the XAUI interface for RCW
options #5 and #6. The total line speed must not exceed 12Gbps for these configurations.

The COMX-P40x0 ENP2 has the following combinations of network ports in the frame
managers:

1 RGMII (FM1) + XAUI (FM2) RCW options: 1-4, 9, 11-12

1 RGMII (FM1) + 4 SGMII (FM2) RCW options: 5-6

1 RGMII (FM1) only (+ SRIO configuration) RCW options 7-8

PCI Express based network ports like the Intel PRO/1000 are not limited by the above
mentioned rules because their packets are handled not by the frame managers but by the CPU.
The COMX-P40x0 ENP2 powers down the Bank 3 SerDes (FM1 lanes).

EC1 of pin multiplexing configuration in the RCW routes the RGMII port (FM1@DTSEC1) to the
EC1 parallel mode pins. The RGMII port is always present in all of the twelve SerDes/RCW
options.
