• Managed by the Unit Computer through a PCIe x1 Gen1 (2.5 Gbps)
• One 1000Base-X link to the Unit Computer

The switch represents the central point of the AT8242. It manages the connections to the NPUs, the RTM, the
IPMC, the UC, the base interfaces and the fabric interfaces.

2.4.2

Base Interface

Two SerDes lanes are routed from the on board switch to the Base Interface channels. These lanes support
10/100/1000Base-T/TX/T as per current PICMG 3.0 specification.

2.4.3

Fabric Interface

The Fabric Interfaces are connected to the Broadcom BCM56842 switch. Eight SerDes lanes are routed from
the switch to the Fabric Interface channels. These lanes are configurable as two 40G-KR4 or two 10G-XAUI.

Table 2-1:Switch Port Assignment

Note:

The port mapping is defined to maximize the switch bandwidth within the WarpCore Groups.
Adjustments to the port mapping could be possible; please contact Kontron Technical Support.
Ultimately, a 480Gbps pin compatible upgrade without changes in the PCB layout would be possible.
