GbE SMBus Alert:
 Acts as an interrupt of a slave device on the 
SMBus. An external pull-up resistor is required.
If the GBE_SMBALRT_N interface is not used, the signals can be 
used as NCSI_CRS_DV Carrier Sense/Receive Data Valid (CRS/
DV).
I/O
GbE Port 0 SW Defined Pin 0:
 The SDP pins are reserved pins 
that are software programmable with write/read, input/output 
capability. These default to inputs upon power up but may have 
their direction and output values defined in the EEPROM. The SDP 
bits may be mapped to the General Purpose Interrupt bits when 
configured as inputs. SDP can be used for IEEE* 1588 standard 
interface. The SDP0_0 pin can be used as a watchdog output 
indication. If the GBE_SDP0_0 interface is not used, the signal can 
be used as GPIO SUS Port 17.
I/O
GbE Port 0 SW Defined Pin 1:
 The SDP pins are reserved pins 
that are software programmable with write/read, input/output 
capability. These default to inputs upon power up, but may have 
their direction and output values defined in the EEPROM. The SDP 
bits may be mapped to the General Purpose Interrupt bits when 
configured as inputs. SDP can be used for IEEE 1588 standard 
interface. The SDP0_1 pin can be used as a watchdog output 
indication. SFP sideband signals are not supported.
If GBE_SDP0_1 interface is not used, the signal can be used as 
GPIO SUS Port 18.
If none of the above functions are used, the signal can be used as 
NCSI_ARB_IN arbitration input.

 Programming: 
0000: Port 0 link up 
0001: Port 1 link up 
0010: Port 2 link up 
0011: Port 3 link up 
0100: Port 0 activity 
0101: Port 1 activity 
0110: Port 2 activity 
0111: Port 3 activity 
1000: Ports 0-3 ink up
1001: Ports 0-1 link up
1010: Ports 0-3 activity 
1011: Ports 0-1 activity 
If the GBE_LED[3:0] interface is not used, the signals can be used 
as GPIO SUS Port [22:19].

NCSI Receive Data 1
: Data signals to the Manageability 
Controller (MC). Pin strap to enable GbE in S5 (1’b1 to enable – 
the default). If the NCSI_RXD1 signal is not used, the signal can 
be used as GPIO SUS Port 23. Refer to 
.
I/O, OD
Gigabit Ethernet Controller Management Channel 0 Clock 
(out)
: Serial clock for the management channel. Can also be 
configured as an I
2
C (OD) clock. If the GBE_MDIO0_I2C_CLK 
interface is not used, the signal can be used as GPIO SUS Port 24. 
I/O, OD
Gigabit Ethernet Controller Management Channel 0 Data 
(T/S)
: Serial data for the management channel. Can also be 
configured as I
2
C (OD) data. If the GBE_MDIO1_I2C_DATA 
interface is not used, the signal can be used as GPIO SUS Port 25. 
I/O, OD
Gigabit Ethernet Controller Management Channel 1 Clock 
(out)
: Serial clock for the management channel. Can also be 
configured as an I
2
C (OD) clock. If the GBE_MDIO1_I2C_CLK 
interface is not used, the signal can be used as GPIO SUS Port 26. 
If none of the above functions are used, the signal can be used as 
NCSI_TXD1 Transmit Data 1. Data signals from the MC. 
Note:
If not used, should have an external pull-up resistor.
