Functional Description
Ethernet LED Status
ACT (green): This LED monitors network connection and activity. The LED lights up when a
valid link (cable connection) has been established. The LED goes temporarily off if network
packets are being sent or received through the RJ-45 port. When this LED remains off, a valid
link has not been established due to a missing or a faulty cable connection.
SPEED (green/orange): This LED lights up to indicate a successful 100Base-TX or
1000BASE-T connection. When green, it indicates a 100Base-TX connection and when orange
it indicates a 1000Base-T connection. When not lit and the ACT-LED is active, the connection
is operating at 10Base-T.

Serial ATA Connectors J7 and J8

The CP308 is equipped with two standard SATA connectors, J7 (SATA1) and J8 (SATA0),
which are used to connect standard HDDs/SSDs and other SATA devices to the CP308.

Note ...
If one of the onboard SATA connectors will be used, due to the big SATA con-
nector and the stiff SATA cable, the CP308 will exceed the thickness of 4HP.
Note ...
To ensure secure connectivity, the SATA connectors support the use of SATA II
cables (SATA cables with locking latch).
2.3.8

CompactPCI Interface

The CP308 supports a flexible CompactPCI interface with a hot plug power interface (no PCI
hot swap). In the system controller slot the PCI interface is in transparent mode, and in the pe-
ripheral slot the CompactPCI interface is isolated so that it cannot communicate with the Com-
pactPCI bus. This mode is known as "passive mode".
2.3.8.1

Board Functionality when Installed in System Controller Slot

In a system controller slot, the CompactPCI interface is provided as 32-bit/33 MHz PCI inter-
face.
