3.2.3.3 Gigabit Ethernet signals
The Gigabit Ethernet interface is realised, on QuadMo747-x2000 module, using a Realtek RTL8111F Gigabit Ethernet controller, which is interfaced to Intel
Express Chipset through PCI-express lane #3.
Here following the signals involved in PCI express management:
GBE_MDI0+/GBE_MDI0-: Media Dependent Interface (MDI) I/O differential pair #0.
GBE_MDI1+/GBE_MDI1-: Media Dependent Interface (MDI) I/O differential pair #1.
GBE_MDI2+/GBE_MDI2-: Media Dependent Interface (MDI) I/O differential pair #2, only used for 1Gbps Ethernet
mode (not for 10/100Mbps modes).
GBE_MDI3+/GBE_MDI3-: Media Dependent Interface (MDI) I/O differential pair #3, only used for 1Gbps Ethernet
mode (not for 10/100Mbps modes).
GBE_ACT#: Ethernet controller activity indicator, Active Low Output signal, electrical level +3.3V_A.
GBE_LINK#: Ethernet controller link indicator, Active Low Output signal, electrical level +3.3V_A.
GBE_LINK100#: Ethernet controller 100Mbps link indicator, Active Low Output signal, electrical level +3.3V_A.
GBE_LINK1000#: Ethernet controller 1Gbps link indicator, Active Low Output signal, electrical level +3.3V_A.
These signals can be connected, on the Carrier board, directly to an RJ-45 connector, in order to complete the
Ethernet interface.
Please notice that if just a FastEthernet (i.e. 10/100 Mbps) is needed, then only MDI0 and MDI1 differential lanes are necessary.
Unused differential pairs and signals can be left unconnected. Please look to the schematic on the left as an example of implementation of Gigabit Ethernet
connector. In this example, it is also present GBE_CTREF signal connected on pin #2 of the RJ-45 connector. Realtek RTL8111F Gigabit Ethernet controller,
however, doesn't need the analog powered centre tap; therefore the signal GBE_CTREF is not available on Qseven
