CHAPTER 1: QUICK START
It is recommended that you install the software package before
installing the PCI Express Mini Card (mPCIe) in your computer. You
can install the software1using either a stand-alone installer
downloaded from the website or an optional Software Master CD.
Run the installer you downloaded (or autorun.exe on the Software
Master CD) and follow the prompts to install the software for your
device.
Please note: during the installation you may be prompted regarding
the installation of non-WHQL-certified drivers; please carefully
confirm the digitally signed source of the drivers and accept the
installation.
After the Software package has finished installing the Intel I210
driver installation program will run.
Once the software and driver has been installed, shut down your
system and carefully install the mPCIe card.
Caution: Do not connect an Ethernet cable at this time.
Re-start your system. Once the computer finishes booting your new
Ethernet port should already be installed and ready for use; you can
confirm this by launching Device Manager and looking under the
“Network Adapters” section.
1In Linux or OSX please refer to the instructions in those directories.
CHAPTER 2: INTRODUCTION
PCI Express Mini Card (mPCIe), a low-profile small-footprint bus
standard originally intended for adding peripherals to notebook
computers, has become the de-facto standard for high-
performance, small form-factor devices in many applications.
•PCI Express Mini Card (mPCIe) type F1, with latching I/O connectors
•Rugged design with overvoltage protection and buffering on all signals
•Onboard magnetics with built in isolation via transformer coupling
•Industrial temperature and RoHS standard
•10/100/1000 BASE-T interface on mPCIe
•PCI Express v2.1 (2.5GT/s) interface
•Powered by +3.3V from PCI Express Mini Card Connector
•Optional low-PPM XTAL to support IEEE 1488 precision timing protocol
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The mPCIe-LAN-GbE is a type F1 PCI Express Mini Card ("mPCIe")
optimized for use in mobile and rugged environments, with latching
connectors and protection on all signals. The onboard magnetics
feature robust built in isolation via transformer coupling. In addition,
industrial temperature and RoHS compliance are standard.
The card's high speed PCI Express 2.1 controller and Intel's industry-
leading I210 Ethernet chip provide an often necessary 1000Base-T
(gigabit) Ethernet port while low power-consumption, small form-
factor and light weight make integration into existing designs a snap.
Onboard LEDs provide diagnostic and status information about
power, link/activity, and data rate.
Full 10/100/1000 BASE-T compatibility —with IEEE 1488 Precision
Timing Protocol support when ordered with a low-PPM XTAL
(optional) —makes the mPCIe-LAN-GbE perfect for use in any
Ethernet environment, from servers to users; mobile, rack, or
desktop. The 104e-mPCIe-4 can support 4 mPCIe-LAN-GbE cards in
a single stack height for the most compact and robust applications
using the PC/104 form factor.
An optional RJ45 positive-retention cable assembly is designed to be
easily panel-mounted.

CHAPTER 4: CONFIGURATION SETTINGS
There are no configuration options to set.
CHAPTER 5: PC INTERFACE
This product interfaces with a PC using a PCI Express Mini Card
(mPCIe) connection; a small-form-factor, high-performance, rugged
peripheral interconnect technology first introduced for use in
laptops and other portable computers.
mPCIe’s small size and powerful performance, combined with
perfect software compatibility with PCI and PCIe peripheral designs,
have led to its recent adoption as a go-to standard for embedded
Data Acquisition and Control, and many other applications.
Although mPCIe is a broadly-adopted industry standard, the actual
connection to the computer shares a specification with mSATA:
both mSATA and mPCIe use the same edge-connector. In fact, well-
designed PCs can automatically detect and configure their onboard

ACCES I/O Products, Inc. MADE IN THE USA mPCIe-LAN-GbE Manual

connectors to work with either mPCIe or mSATA devices –and,
according to the standards for mPCIe and mSATA they are supposed
to do so! However, some PC manufacturers ship computers that
only support mSATA devices. Please confirm in your PC
documentation that your edge-connector is actually PCI Express
Mini Card compliant before installing this, or any, mPCIe card.
Damage might occur if you install an mPCIe device into a computer
that only supports mSATA.
mPCIe defines mounting holes for securing the otherwise loose end
of the card, so it is impossible for these cards to wiggle or flap
themselves loose (which was a recurring problem with the older PCI
Mini devices). Eliminating this concern for PCI Express Mini Cards is
a major reason this standard has seen rapid adoption by the Data
Acquisition and Control industry.
The mPCIe standard, like its PCI Mini Card predecessor, was
designed assuming use primarily in Laptop or Notebook and similar
devices, where physical dimension is often the paramount design
constraint. In Data Acquisition and Control applications low-weight
combined with vibration tolerance tend to be of more concern.
CHAPTER 6: I/O INTERFACE
The card incorporates a 12-pin right-angle latching connector
suitable for rugged environments. When used with the CAB-mPCIe-
LAN optional cable accessory this 12-pin embeddable connector is
broken out to a standard RJ45 panel-mount connector.
