RJ-45 connector. LAN1 is equipped with Intel 82579LM for
AMT function. LAN2 is equipped with Intel 82574L. Using
suitable RJ-45 cable, you can connect Echo77F-PoER system
to a computer, or to any other piece of equipment that has
an Ethernet connection, for example, a hub or a switch.
Moreover, both of them have Wake-on-LAN and Preboot
Execution Environment capabilities. The following diagram
shows the pinouts for LAN1 and LAN2 port.

The Ethernet ports use standard RJ-45 jack connectors
with LED indicators on the front side to show Active/Link
status and Speed status. The LED indicators on the right
bottom corners glow a solid green color when the cable is
properly connected to a 100 Mbps Ethernet network. The
LED indicator on the left bottom corner will ash on and o

Yellow-HDD LED: A hard disk / CFast LED. If the LED is on, it
indicates that the system’s storage is functional. If it is o, it
indicates that the system’s storage is not functional. If it is
ashing, it indicates data access activities.
Green-Power LED: If the LED is solid green, it indicates that
the system is powered on.
2.2.9 CFast Card
The Echo77F-PoER system comes with a CFast socket on
the front panel for Type-I / Type-II Compact Flash card. It
is implemented by a SATA II Port from QM77 PCH. Be sure
to disconnect the power source and unscrew the CFast
socket cover before installing a CFast card. The Echo77F-
PoE does not support the CFast hot swap and PnP (Plug and

To turn on the Echo77F-PoER, press the power button and
the blue LED is lighted up. To turn off the Echo77F-PoER,
you can either issue a shutdown command in OS, or just
simply press the power button.
In case of system halts, you can press and hold the power
button for 4 seconds to compulsorily shut down the system.
Please note that a 4 seconds interval is kept by the system
between two on/off operations (i.e. once turning off the
system, you shall wait for 4 seconds to initiate another
power-on operation).

2.3.1 DC-In 6~36V Mini DIN or Power Terminal Block
The Echo77F-PoER oers 6 to 36 VDC power input with the
terminal block. If the power is supplied properly, the Power
LED will light up a solid green.
80V power surge protection is design in in LTC4356.
Grounding and write routing help limit the eects of noise
due to EMI. Run the ground connection from the ground
screw to the grounding surface prior to connecting the
power.
See the figure shown below for the location of the earth
ground on the terminal block power connector. Connect
the earth ground wire to an appropriate grounded metal
surface.
