The state of link, speed and activity is show by two LEDs on every socket. The EXP-ETH8 supports Stack-up and Stack-down to a CPU Module. Furthermore the EXP-ETH8 uses the 5 Volt and 3.3 Volt power supplied from the PCI/104-Express connector. All other voltages are generated on the board itself.

Be sure that your power supply is able to provide enough current to your system. An insufficient power supply leads to an instable system. The EXP-ETH8 need an extra heat sink for standard environment temperatures from –20 °C … +60 °C as well as the extended range of -40 °C ... +85 °C.

PCI/104 Express Bus Interface The EXP-ETH8 uses x16 link of the PCI/104-Express bus. Which link is used depends if the board is stacked-up or stacked -down. On the module there is a PCI Express switch that detects the type of connection and forwards the other links according to the specification.
