Intel Desktop Board D850EMD2/D850EMV2 Technical Product Specification

1.11 LAN Subsystem (Optional)

The Network Interface Controller subsystem consists of the ICH2 (with integrated LAN Media
Access Controller) and a physical layer interface device. The LAN subsystem includes the
following features:
•
PCI Bus Master interface
•
CSMA/CD Protocol Engine
•
Serial CSMA/CD unit interface that supports the following physical layer interface devices:
 82562ET onboard LAN
 82562ET/EM (10/100 Mbit/sec Ethernet) on CNR bus
 82562EH (1 Mbit/sec HomePNA
•
PCI Power Management
 Supports ACPI technology
 Supports wake-up from a suspend state using the PME# signal
1.11.1 Intel ® 82562ET PLC Device
The Intel 82562ET component provides an interface to the back panel RJ-45 connector with
integrated LEDs. This physical interface may alternately be provided through the CNR connector.
The Intel 82562ET provides the following functions:
•
Basic 10/100 Ethernet LAN connectivity
•
RJ-45 connector support with status indicator LEDs on the back panel
•
Full device driver compatibility
•
ACPI support
•
Programmable transit threshold
•
Configuration EEPROM that contains the MAC address
1.11.2 RJ-45 LAN Connector with Integrated LEDs
Two LEDs are built into the RJ-45 LAN connector. Table 9 describes the LED states when the
board is powered up and the LAN subsystem is operating.
