Intel Server Board S1200BT - PROconsult Data A/S

Intel® Server Board S1200BT TPS
Functional Architecture
• In dual mode, the onboard video controller is enabled and is the primary video device.
The external video card is allocated resources and is considered the secondary
video device.
• When KVM is enabled in iBMC FW, dual video is enabled.

Warning: System video is completely disabled if
this option is disabled and an add-in video
adapter is not installed.
If enabled, both the onboard video controller and
an add-in video adapter are enabled for system
video. The onboard video controller becomes
the primary video device.
3.7.2 Video for Intel ® Server Board S1200BTS
SM712 is a video chip from Silicon Motion, Inc (SMI). It is one in SMI‘s LynxEM family. It is PCI
2.1 compliant with the standard PCI 33MHz & 66 MHz PCI Master/Slave interface.
• 33 MHz & 66 MHz PCI Master/Slave interface
• PCI 2.1 compliant
• Memory control is provided for the 4MB internal memory
• Support 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768 resolution and up to 85Hz.
• Dual Video mode is supported.
3.8 Network Interface Controller (NIC)
The Intel ® Server Board S1200BT supports two network interfaces, One is provided from the
onboard Intel ® 82574L GbE PCI Express network controller; the other is the onboard Intel ®
82579 Gigabit Network controller.
3.8.1 Gigabit Ethernet Controller 82574L
The 82574 family (82574L and 82574IT) are single, compact, low-power components that offer
a fully-integrated Gigabit Ethernet Media Access Control (MAC) and Physical Layer (PHY) port.
The 82574 uses the PCI Express* architecture and provides a single-port implementation in a
relatively small area so it can be used for server and client configurations as a LAN on
Motherboard (LOM) design.
External interfaces provided on the 82574:
• PCIe Rev. 2.0 (2.5 GHz) x1
• MDI (Copper) standard IEEE 802.3 Ethernet interface for 1000BASE-T, 100BASETX,
and 10BASE-T applications (802.3, 802.3u, and 802.3ab)
• NC-SI or SMBus connection to a Manageability Controller (MC)
• EEE 1149.1 JTAG (note that BSDL testing is NOT supported)
3.8.2 Gigabit Ethernet PHY 82579
The 82579 is a single port Gigabit Ethernet Physical Layer Transceiver (PHY). It connects to the
Intel ® C200 series Chipset‘s integrated Media Access Controller (MAC) through a dedicated
interconnect. The 82579 supports operation at 1000/100/10 Mb/s data rates. The PHY circuitry
