About the Standard Ethernet Port
The system’s main logic board provides an autosensing, switchable
10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet interface conforming to the IEEE 802.3u Ethernet
standard. The autosensing interface configures itself automatically for either
10-Mbps or 100-Mbps operation, depending on network characteristics.
One preconfigured RJ-45 back panel connector, for connecting a Category-5 twisted-
pair Ethernet (TPE) cable, provides access to the Ethernet interface.
For instructions on configuring the main logic board Ethernet interface, see “How to
Configure the Standard Ethernet Interface” on page 51.
For the connector diagram, back panel icon, and pin assignments, see “Reference for
the Twisted-Pair Ethernet (TPE) Connector” on page 206.
For information about operating characteristics and configuration parameters for the
eri Fast Ethernet device driver, see Platform Notes: The eri FastEthernet Device Driver.
