ESD Warning
Electronic components and circuits are sensitive to
ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD). When handling any
circuit board assemblies including Connect Tech
COM Express carrier assemblies, it is recommended
that ESD safety precautions be observed. ESD safe
best practices include, but are not limited to:
•Leaving circuit boards in their antistatic
packaging until they are ready to be installed.
•Using a grounded wrist strap when handling
circuit boards, at a minimum you should touch a
grounded metal object to dissipate any static
charge that may be present on you.
•Only handling circuit boards in ESD safe areas,
which may include ESD floor and table mats,
wrist strap stations and ESD safe lab coats.
•Avoiding handling circuit boards in carpeted
areas.
•Try to handle the board by the edges, avoiding
contact with components.

INTRODUCTION
Connect Tech’s MPG110 series board is a rugged, low-cost dual Gigabit Ethernet Mini PCIe module that
is ideal for adding extra Ethernet capabilities to any system with minimal increase in overall system size
and power consumption. The module utilizes PCIe signaling which allows it to be used in any Mini PCIe
socket that supports PCIe. The wide operating temperature, latching Ethernet connector and cabling
solution allows these modules to be used in harsh environments. Compatibility with Windows and Linux
operating systems allows these boards to be easily integrated into a wide array of new and existing
systems.

DETAILED FEATURE DESCRIPTION
PCI Express Interface
The Mini PCIe Gbe supports one PCIe Rev. 2.0 lane connecting between the Mini PCIe edge fingers
and the Intel i350 GbE controller. This interface has sufficient bandwidth to support two 1000 Mb/s
transfer rate and with 36 KB of on-board buffering per port, mitigates instantaneous receive
bandwidth stresses and eliminates transmit delays by buffering the outgoing packet prior to
transmission.
10/100/1000Base-T Port
The MPG110 two Ethernet interface ports supporting 1000BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 10BASE-T (IEEE
802.3, 802.3u, 802.3ab). This multi-speed port can operate in Half or Full duplex and includes flow
control support compliant with IEEE 802.3X as well as VLAN support compliant with IEEE 802.3q.
Note that half-duplex 1000 MB/s operation is not supported.
SMBus Management Port
The SMBus interface allows software-based network management by providing a mechanism by
which network traffic can be routed to and from a Management Controller. The SMBus supports
pass-through capabilities, with the following filtering options:
•RMCP/RMCP+ ports
•Flexible UDP/TCP port filters
•128-byte flexible filters
•VLAN
•IPv4 address
•IPv6 address
•MAC address filters
Using the SMBus pass-through interface, a received packet can be discarded, sent to host memory,
sent to an external management controller, or both host memory and external management
controller. All manageability filters are controlled by the management controller, not the i350
drivers.
Software Support for the Intel i350
Additional drivers will be needed to properly operate the GBE Port.
These drivers can be downloaded directly from Intel website from the below link:
