Fiber Setup

Fiber Modules

The LXT9781 supports eight combination twisted-pair/fiber ports for 100BASE-FX operation.
Two Pseudo-ECL (PECL) interfaces are provided on the LXD9781 MII demo board for connection
to external fiber optic transceiver modules.
To setup the LXD9781 for 100BASE-FX evaluation, five external blue-wire connections and a
fiber-optic transceiver module (HP's HFBR-5903 or AMP's 269147-2) are required. Port
connections are shown in
Remove the associated twisted-pair transformer(s) and termination resistors. Once removed,
all associated ports will not operate in TP mode.
Connect ports 0 - 3 by removing transformer (T2) and termination logic (R272, R277, R280,
R285, R288, R293, R296, R301).
Connect ports 4 - 7 by removing transformer (T1) and termination logic (R240, R245, R248,
R253, R256, R261, R264, R269). Replace C220 - C235 with 0 Ω resistors.
Two fiber-module headers (JP37 and JP38) are provided for the blue-wire connection. Connect
ports 0 - 3 to fiber header JP37 and connect ports 4 - 7 to fiber header JP38.
Solder the fiber modules on the board. Fiber module F1 supports ports 0 - 3. Fiber module F2
supports ports 4 - 7.
Configure the port MDIO registers for Fiber Mode.
