2.2.7 Ethernet Port

There are dual 8-pin RJ-45 jacks supporting 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet

connections in the front side. LAN 1 is powered by Intel® i219 Ethernet Phy and

LAN 2 is powered by Intel® I210 Ethernet engine. When both LAN 1 and LAN 2

work at normal status, iAMT 11.0 function is enabled.

Using suitable RJ-45 cable, you can connect the system to a computer or to

any other devices with Ethernet connection; for example, a hub or a switch.

Moreover, both LAN 1 and LAN 2 support Wake on LAN and Pre-boot functions.

The pin-outs of LAN 1 and LAN 2 are listed as follows :

Pin No. 10/100 Mbps 1000Mbps

8 ----- MDI3_N

Each LAN port is supported by standard RJ-45 connector with LED indicators to

present Active/Link/Speed status of the connection.

The LED indicator on the right bottom corner lightens in solid green when the

cable is properly connected to a 100Mbps Ethernet network; The LED indicator

on the right bottom corner lightens in solid orange when the cable is properly

connected to a 1000Mbps Ethernet network; The left LED will keep twinkling/o

when Ethernet data packets are being transmitted/received.
