3.1.3.2 SRIO Switching Module (x24 and x48)<br />
The SRIO module x24(x48) supports switching of 1 or 4 lanes SRIO for up to 6(12) AMC<br />
slots. The baud rate of each port can be selected independently between 1,25 Gbit/s, 2,5<br />
Gbit/s and 3,125Gbit/s.<br />
With the help of E-Keying the baud rate configured according the supported baud rate of the<br />
connected AMC.<br />
3.1.3.3 XAUI (10 Gigabit Ethernet) Switching Module (X24 and X48)<br />
The XAUI module X24 (X48) supports switching of 10 gigabit Ethernet for up to 6 (12)<br />
AMC slots and a 2 nd <strong>MCH</strong>.<br />
Additional the XAUI Module can be equipped with an optional face plate module (available<br />
in Q4 2008). With this module there are also two 10 gigabit Ethernet interfaces accessible at<br />
the face plate of the <strong>MCH</strong>.<br />
There are two versions of the face plate module available a CX4 and a SFP+ version. The<br />
CX4 version offers two CX4 interfaces (10 GbE over a copper cable). The SFP+ version<br />
offers two SFP+ cages. These cages can be assembled with any SFP+ transceiver. There are<br />
different SFP+ transceivers available, from different vendors for different optical interfaces.<br />
If a compliant AMC is recognized via E-Keying the dedicated port of the switch is<br />
automatically enabled by the firmware. Then the switch is in a forwarding state.<br />
