CP930 Introduction

1.3 Board Overview

1.3.1 Board Introduction

The CP930 five Channel Ethernet Switch is a 3U/4HP CPCI Board designed for use in a CPCI system.
The CP930 itself is equipped with a five channel switch controller (Marvell 88E6063-RCJ). Network interfacing is accomplished using CAT5 UTP cabling for 10Base-T and 100Base-TX,
and, optionally , for the fiber optical port, a MT -RJ multimode optical cable is recommended. For copper solutions, all MAC and PHY functions are integrated into the controller chip. Only gal­vanic isolation is performed externally. For the fiber optic solution, the controller also provides MAC and PHY functions, except for the optical transceiver interface. This is accomplished us­ing an external transceiver module for the channel which also includes the connector to the op­tical link.
Host interfacing is provided by a CPCI connector, to provide power to the board.

1.3.2 Board Specific Information

Specific board components involved in the Ethernet communications and data handling pro­cess are:
• Front panel connectors (depending on variant):
• Up to five RJ45 connectors
• Up to five Magnetics modules for galvanic isolation (RJ45 front end)
• One Agilent HFBR-5905 Fiber Optic Transceiver (optional)

Ethernet interfacing is achieved either via the CON3(RJ45), CON4(RJ45), CON5(FX), or CON6(RJ45) connectors depending on the CP930 variant in use and the type of network link: copper or fiber optic. One of the features of the Fast Ethernet switch controller is that it can au­tomatically detect signal polarity so there is no need for using crossover cabling for direct cop­per links to a switch.

2.1.4 Monitor and Control

For each RJ45 port there are two LED’s available to indicate status. The yellow LED indicates if the link is active, and if so whether there is activity on the link or not. If on, the link is active, if blinking there is activity on the link. The green LED indicates link speed: ON is 100 Mbit, OFF is 10 Mbit.
The fibre optic port has no indicators and is always 100 Mbit speed.

2.2 Board-Level Interfacing Diagram

The following figure demonstrates the interfacing structure between the internal processing modules of the CP930. Where CP930 system elements have common interfacing they are grouped into a block. Interfacing common to only one element of a block is indicated with a di­rect connecting line. The interfacing lines are shown in white where they are on board and in black for board external interfacing.
The “*” (asterisk) in the figure blocks indicate that the actual implementation depends on the CP930 variant employed.
Legend for Figure 2-1:
• GALV.ISOL. = galvanic isolation for copper links
• MT-RJ TRCV = MT-RJ-type transceiver for fiber optic links
• CAT5 UTP = category 5, unshielded twisted pair cabling (copper links)
• T/R FO = transmit and receive fiber optic links
• ETH = Ethernet Channel
As the Fast Ethernet controller provides automatic detection of the Ethernet standard in use on copper links the CP930 may be used with any mix of Ethernet networks with 10Base-T or 100Base-TX.

2.3 System Interfaces

2.3.1 Ethernet Wire Cabling Interface

The Ethernet wire cabling interface is implemented using up to five 8-contact, female, RJ45 connectors. CON3 is implemented as channel 1-4, and CON4 is implemented as channel 5 when installed, this numbering being the front panel numbering and not the numbering of the channels from the chip. As the Fast Ethernet controller is able to automatically detect the ca­bling configuration and Ethernet standard in use, the pinout of the individual connectors is a function of the implementation.

2.3.2 Channel 5 Interface

Their are three variants of channel 5. One variant employs a st andard Ethernet interface (RJ45) on the front panel, the second variant has a standard Ethernet RJ45 connector onboard, and the third variant has a duplex MT-RJ-type connector recept acle for interfacing to fiber optic links on the front panel. This variant is described below.
2.3.2.1 Ethernet Fiber Optic Interface
The Ethernet fiber optic interface is realized using an Agilent HFBR-M Fiber Optic Transceiver. These transceivers support full duplex 100Base-FX operation and are fitted with a duplex MT­RJ-type connector receptacle for interfacing to fiber optic links. CON5 is implemen ted as Chan­nel 1 when installed.
The following figure indicates the positioning of the transmit and receive receptacles and orien­tation of the connectors and keying of the recept acles. The MT-RJ-type receptacle is designed to support self-locking duplex MT-RJ-type male connectors. This ensures that the fiber optic links are securely fastened to the receptacles.

2.4 Monitor and Control (M/C)

Monitor and Control functions are divided essentially into Pre-operation and Operation. Pre-op­eration M/C deals with board configuration and system requirements. Operation M/C covers di­rect operator interfaces.

2.4.1 Pre-Operation M/C

Pre-operation M/C is a direct function of the application and the system requirements. These requirements dictate the module configuration as we ll as the overall system integration. Overall system integration and compliance with its requirements is beyond the scope of this manual.

2.4.2 Operation M/C

Operation M/C is a function of the CP930 driver software and the application. Direct interaction by the operator is limited to the functionality provided by the LED’s assigned to the respective Ethernet channels. These LED’s can be used to determine the basic operational status of a channel and if data is being transferred.
