The two 10GE ports are fully independent on the module. Monitoring and control signals are mapped to the FMC interface for
detection, loss-of-signal, rate and device control. Atypically, the NIC onboard the FMC-10GE is enumerated and controlled as a
PCIe device, under the control of the ePC-K7’s quad-core i7 processor rather than the systems Kintex 7 FPGA, allowing use of
standard Windows/Linux applications to effectively leverage the communications ports. The FMC-10GE works with legacy
Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) switches and Cat 6e cabling.
The combination of FMC-10GE and Innovative ePC-K7 provides a powerful, stand-alone, FPGA-based wireless transceiver
