Page 3: Interfacing Ep Series
The low data rate downstream link is implemented using either MGT or a low speed serial link similar to I²C. The purpose of this document is to provide the necessary information to correctly connect the EP series devices to the user's target system. Pin assignments, mechanical and electrical specifications of the connectors are provided to help designers implement interfaces compatible with Exostiv Labs devices. -
Page 4: Sfp/Sfp+ Cages
SFP/SFP+ Cages EP series can be connected to up to 4 simplex or full-duplex multi-gigabit links through SFP/SPF+ physical interface. The SFP/SFP+ cages can receive passive cables or optical cables. The connector pin assignment is compatible with the standard proposed by the MSA group [1]. - Page 5 Table 1: SFP/SFP+ connector pin assignment Pin # Signal Description Usage VeeT Transmitter ground Mandatory TX Fault Transmitter fault indication. Open collector/drain output. 4.7K to Optional 10K pull-up required. TX Disable Active high transmitter disable. Optional MOD-DEF2 SDA line for I²C interface. Pull-up resistor required. Optional MOD_DEF1 SCL line for I²C interface.

Page 7: Hdmi Connector (! Legacy !)
The description that follows is provided for legacy support purposes. Future versions of the EP series probe will see this type of connectivity phased out. The HDMI port is implemented using a 19-pin type-A HDMI compatible connector. Industry standard HDMI cables can be used to connect the EP devices to the user's target system. - Page 8 Table 4: HDMI Type-A and Type-D connector pin assignments Type-A Type-C Type-D Signal Description T2Y_Data3+ Positive data line of the 4 differential pair from target system to EP device.
