4-2 MBM-GEM-004 Gigabit Ethernet Switch Module
The MBM-GEM-004 Gigabit Ethernet switch module is a layer 2/3 Ethernet switch. This
module has two internal Ethernet paths to the CMM(s). The module is used to provide a
connection between the Ethernet controller integrated on the mainboard and an external
Ethernet device. This module is a hot-pluggable. See Figure 4-2, Table 4-4 and
Table 4-5 for switch details.
