Intel® Server Board SE7210TP1-E TPS
Functional Architecture
Intel Server Board SE7210TP1-E supports independent disabling of the two NIC controllers
using the BIOS Setup menu.
The NIC subsystem consists of the following:
• Intel 82547GI Platform LAN Connect (PLC) device for 10/100/1000 Mbits/sec Ethernet
LAN connectivity
• Intel 82551QM device for 10/100 Mbits/sec Ethernet LAN connectivity
• RJ-45 LAN connector with integrated status LEDs
The 82547GI is controlled by the CSA interface off of the MCH and supports the following
features:
• Basic 10/100/1000 Ethernet LAN connectivity
• Integrated Gigabit Ethernet Media Access Control (MAC) and physical layer (PHY)
• IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T compliant physical layer interface
• IEEE 802.3ab Auto-Negotiation support
• Low power (less than 350mW in active transmit mode)
• Reduced power in “unplugged mode” (less than 50mW)
• Automatic detection of “unplugged mode”
• Communication Streaming Architecture (CSA) port provides higher throughput and lower
latencies resulting in up to 30% higher bus throughput (up to wire speed)
• Full device driver compatibility
• Programmable transit threshold
• Configuration EEPROM that contains the MAC address
• Teaming and Fail over support
The 82551QM is controlled by the 6300ESB I/O and supports the following features:
• Integrated IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX compatible PHY
• 32-bit PCI/CardBus master interface
• Modem interface for combination solutions
• Integrated power management functions
• Full Duplex support at both 10 and 100 Mbps
• IEEE 802.3u Auto-Negotiation support
• 3 Kbyte transmit and 3 Kbyte receive FIFOs
• Fast back-to-back transmission support with minimum interframe spacing
• IEEE 802.3x 100BASE-TX Flow Control support
• Advanced Power management capabilities
• Low power 3.3 V device
• Efficient dynamic standby mode
• Deep power down support
• Clockrun protocol support
