XMC403- User Guide, Rev. 0.92 2.4. Grounding Methods The following measures help to avoid electrostatic damages to the device: Cover workstations with approved antistatic material. Always wear a wrist strap connected to the workplace, as well as properly grounded tools and equipment.
XMC403- User Guide, Rev. 0.92 3/ Shipment and Unpacking 3.1. Packaging The XMC403 module is packaged in a product specific cardboard package designed to provide adequate protection and absorb shock. 3.2. Unpacking To unpack the XMC403 module perform the following: 1.
4/ Functional Description 4.1. 10 Gigabit Ethernet Controller The XMC403 module provides one dual-channel 10 Gigabit Ethernet controller (Intel® X710-BM2) optimized to deliver high performance with the lowest power consumption including independent transmit and receive queues as well as a PCI Express 3.0 (8 GT/s) interface that maximizes the use of bursts for efficient bus usage.
4.3. Module Interfaces 4.3.1. SFP+ Interfaces The XMC403 module provides two 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports implemented via two SFP+ cages on the faceplate with support for SFP+ direct attach copper cables or SFP+ optical transceivers. The SFP+ uplink ports comply with the SFF-8431 Specifications for Enhanced Small Form Factor Pluggable Module SFP+.
XMC403- User Guide, Rev. 0.92 The two SFP+ cages on the faceplate support SFP+ Direct Attach Copper cables or SFP+ transceivers. For a list of the tested reference transceivers, refer to Table 6: Reference SFP+ Transceivers. Table 7: Reference SFP+ Transceivers...
Link establishment with 1000Base-T SFP depends on the module’s specific implementation of Auto-Negotiation and control of the LOS signal. SFP+ transceivers are not Kontron accessories and must be purchased by the user. For a list of the reference SFP+ transceivers, refer to Table 6: Reference SFP+ Transceivers.
4.3.3. XMC Interface The XMC403 module is equipped with one XMC connector (J1) for connection to a carrier board with a compatible XMC connector. The XMC connector provides the high-speed signals for an x8 PCI Express 3.0 (8 GT/s) interface.
5.1. Hardware Installation The XMC403 module can be installed on any carrier board acting as a PCI Express root complex and compliant with the XMC PCI Express Protocol Layer Standard (ANSI/VITA 42.3-2006).
The following precautions must be observed before installing the XMC403 module on the carrier board to ensure proper installation and avoid damage to the XMC403 or carrier board. Take care when handling the XMC403, to ensure that neither the XMC403 nor the carrier board is physically damaged. Failure to comply with the installation instruction may damage the module or result in improper system operation.
XMC403 module and carrier board together to completely engage the connectors. Ensure that the XMC403 module is properly mated to the carrier board: e.g. XMC bezel flush (Figure 7, pos. 5) with the faceplate, no connector misalignment, no contact between carrier board and XMC403 module except where required.
For SFP+ transceiver connection to the XMC403 module, refer to Table 6: Reference SFP+ Transceivers. When inserting the SPF+ transceiver into the SFP+ cage port do not use force as this may damage the XMC403 module. The SFP+ transceiver makes a clicking sound when locked into the XMC403 modules SFP+ cage. For further information regarding the installation and removal of the SFP+ transceivers, refer to the manufacturer’s instructions...
XMC403- User Guide, Rev. 0.92 6/ Configuration The XMC403 module is designed for plug and play operation, and, as such, it does not have any user configurable module settings that are required for operation. For application usage of module functionality, refer to the appropriate software documentation.
The XMC403 module is powered via the XMC connector. To power up the XMC403, the module must be installed on a carrier board. The XMC403 uses two power supplies from the XMC connector VPWR (5 VDC or 12 VDC) and 3.3V (3.3 VDC).
The values represent the difference in power consumption between a carrier board (CP6007) in idle mode and a carrier board (CP6007) equipped with an XMC403. The XMC403 operates both ports at 10 Gbit/s in full duplex mode using a 100 m fiber optic cable.
