Niagra 804: Hardware Layout & Serial Connection
Components
J15 - RGMII Management Port
CN63xx is connected to a single port PHY (Vitesse VSC8211) via one of its RGMII interfaces (RGMII0). The PHY is connected to the RJ45 management port through a standard MDI/MDIX interface.
This port is used as the management port for the appliance.
J4 connector is dual RJ45 connector that is accessible through the front panel.
The right connector is the management port and the console port is the left connector. The RJ45 connector has bi-color LEDs: Green and Yellow.
J15 - UART1, Serial Interface 0 (Console Port)
Serial interface 0 is a RS232 level serial interface that is used as the console port for the Appliance.
J4 connector is dual RJ45 connector that is accessible through the front panel.
The console port is the left connector and the right connector is the management port.
The default setting for this port is: 115200 baud, 8 data bit, no stop bits and even parity.
J1 - UART2, Serial Interface 1 (unused)
Serial interface 1 is a TTL level serial interface that utilizes an IM100 to connect RS232 devices.
JP3 is primarily used during initial test and debug phase.
The default setting for this port is: 115200 baud, 8 data bit, no stop bits and even parity.
