F301 – 3U CompactPCI® Unmanaged 8+1-Port Eth. Switch
MEN Mikro Elektronik GmbH 2
20F301-00 E2 – 2011-01-03
F301 – 3U CompactPCI® Unmanaged 8+1-Port Eth. Switch
The F301 is an unmanaged 3U Fast Ethernet switch module with a maximum of 8
channels at the front panel (8 RJ45 or 6 D-Sub connectors) and an integrated Fast
Ethernet controller. The Ethernet switch is an unmanaged device, meaning that it is
not recognized by other CompactPCI® devices thereby removing the need for
additional software. As an option it is also available as a fixed managed device, with
a customized, hardware-coded configuration.
An onboard Ethernet controller is used to realize the interface to the CompactPCI®
bus. The F301 also works without the Ethernet controller being assembled. In this
case the CompactPCI® bus only delivers the power supply. As an option (with the
Ethernet controller not being assembled) the J2 connector can be assembled and
used to manage the rear I/O Ethernet signals from the ninth Ethernet port.
The F301 is specifically designed for rugged mobile communication systems. It is
thus for example fully compliant with the EN 50155 railway standard. All
components on the board are specified for a -40 to +85°C operation temperature.
The board is ready for coating.
The F301 needs one slot on the CompactPCI® bus, using a 4 HP or 8 HP front
panel.

Product Safety
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Computer boards and components contain electrostatic sensitive devices.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components. To protect the board and
other components against damage from static electricity, you should follow some
precautions whenever you work on your computer.
Power down and unplug your computer system when working on the inside.
Hold components by the edges and try not to touch the IC chips, leads, or cir-
cuitry.
Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components.
Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the
component whenever the components are separated from the system.
Store the board only in its original ESD-protected packaging. Retain the original
packaging in case you need to return the board to MEN for repair.

1.2 Integrating the Board into a System
You can use the following check list when installing the board in a system for the
first time and with minimum configuration.
Power-down the system.
Insert the F301 into a peripheral slot of your CompactPCI system, making sure
that the CompactPCI connectors are properly aligned.
Note: The peripheral slots of every CompactPCI system are marked by a circle
on the backplane and/or at the front panel.
Power-up the system.
You can now install driver software for the F301 Ethernet controllers if needed.
1.3 Installing Driver Software
For a detailed description on how to install driver software please refer to the
respective documentation.
You can find any driver software available for download on MEN’s website.
Functional Description
MEN Mikro Elektronik GmbH 14
20F301-00 E2 – 2011-01-03
2 Functional Description
2.1 Power Supply
The F301 is supplied with +5V and +3.3V via the CompactPCI bus.
2.2 Ethernet Ports
2.2.1 Implementation on F301
The F301 is based on the KS8999 9-port Ethernet switch. (See Chapter 2.3 Ethernet
Switch on page 16.)
The board allows data rates of up to 100Mbits/s and supports full-duplex operation.
Full-duplex and half-duplex network environments are autodetected using the
IEEE802.3 autonegotiation algorithm.
The physical interfaces are implemented as 10/100Base-TX (Twisted Pair) with
eight standard 8-pin RJ45 connectors with status LEDs at the front panel for ports
1..8. Alternatively, versions with four 8-pin RJ45 connectors (ports 1..4) or six 9-pin
D-Sub connectors (ports 1..6) are available (see Chapter 1.1 Front Panels on page
12).
For the ninth port there is an additional Ethernet controller, the Intel® 82551ER Fast
Ethernet controller. This chip connects directly to the CompactPCI bus. The
82551ER includes a 3-kbyte transmit and receive FIFO and both a MAC and PHY.
Alternatively, the ninth port is available on J2 for rear I/O connection. (See also
Chapter 2.5 CompactPCI Interface on page 17.) The "ninth" port is available for all
versions of F301, independent of the front panel ports.
Table 1. Signal Mnemonics for Ethernet Connectors
There are two status LEDs for each RJ45 connector. For the integrated Ethernet
controller 82551ER there are two additional LEDs at the front panel.

2.3 Ethernet Switch
The F301 features a KS8999 9-port Ethernet switch device. The KS8999 contains
eight 10/100 physical layer transceivers, and nine MAC (Media Access Control)
units with an integrated Layer 2 switch. The device runs in two modes. The first
mode is an eight-port integrated switch and the second is as a nine port switch with
the ninth port available through an MII (Media Independent Interface). The KS8999
is designed to reside in an unmanaged design not requiring processor intervention.
This is achieved through I/O strapping or EEPROM programming at system reset
time.
On the media side, the KS8999 supports 10Base-T and 100Base-TX as specified by
the IEEE 802.3 committee. Physical signal transmission and reception are enhanced
through use of analog circuitry that makes the design more efficient and allows for
lower power consumption and smaller chip die size.
Main Features
9 port (8+1) 10/100 integrated switch with eight physical layer transceivers and
one MII interface
Advanced Ethernet Switch with internal frame buffer
- 128 kbytes of SRAM on chip for frame buffering
- 2.0 Gbps high performance memory bandwidth
- Wire speed reception and transmission
- Integrated address look-up engine, supports 1K absolute MAC addresses
- Automatic address learning, address aging and address migration
Proven transceiver technology
- 10Base-T and 100Base-TX
- Indicators for link, activity, and speed
- Hardware based 10/100, full/half, flow control and auto-negotiation
- Full duplex IEEE 802.3x flow control
- Half-duplex back pressure flow control
Supports MDI/MDI-X auto crossover
Unmanaged operation via strapping or EEPROM at system reset time
Advanced Switch Features (optional with fixed managed device configuration)
- Supports 802.1p priority and port based priority
- Supports port based VLAN
- Supports 1536 byte frame for VLAN tag
- Supports DiffServ priority, 802.1p based priority or port based priority
broadcast storm protection
- Individual port forced modes (full duplex, 100Base-TX) when auto-
negotiation is disabled
2.4 EEPROM
The F301 has one serial 4K EEPROM to store the MAC address for the Ethernet
controller. Another serial 2K EEPROM stores the configuration data for the
Ethernet switch.
Functional Description
MEN Mikro Elektronik GmbH 17
20F301-00 E2 – 2011-01-03
2.5 CompactPCI Interface
The F301 supports a 32-bit 33-MHz CompactPCI interface fully compatible with
CompactPCI specification PICMG 2.0 Rev. 3.0. This interface is realized by the
82551ER Ethernet controller. The board works with 3.3V or 5V VI/O. The Ethernet
switch is not recognized by other CompactPCI devices. They only detect the
controller.
The F301 also works without an Ethernet controller. In that case the CompactPCI
bus only provides the needed power supply.
For full CompactPCI functionality only the J1 connector is needed, J2 is optional. J2
is only available if the Ethernet controller is not populated. In this case the rear I/O
Ethernet signals (RX and TX) can be used for a ninth Ethernet port (see pinout
below).
Connector types of J1/J2:
110-pin shielded, 2mm-pitch, 5-row receptacle according to IEC 917 and IEC
1076-4-101
The pin assignment of connectors J1 and J2 as defined in the CompactPCI
specification will not be repeated here. The table below shows the special features of
the F301 (i.e. the upper half of J2) only.
This pin assignment is compatible with MEN’s F9 CompactPCI CPU board.
