1. Introduction

1.1 Board Overview

The XMC402 Dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet module is an XMC mezzanine card designed for use

with compliant carrier boards or CPU boards which support XMC modules with PCI Express

2.1 interconnection. The XMC402 incorporates a very flexible design which allows simple and

easy integration of 10 Gigabit Ethernet functionality to any compliant system.

The XMC402 provides wire-speed, dual-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet throughput and is equipped

with one dual-channel 10 Gigabit Ethernet controller (Intel® X540) and two 10 Gigabit Ethernet

RJ-45 connectors with integrated magnetics and status LEDs.

Carrier interfacing is provided by one XMC connector supporting PCI Express 2.1 (5 GT/s) with

x8 lanes.
