Base Point-to-Point Connectivity
The ATCA-9305 supports two 10/100/1000BASE-T ports on Base Interface Channels 0 and
1, and two 10 GbE XAUI ports to the Fabric channels. Depending on the board configura-
tion, either two or six 10 GbE XAUI ports route to the optional rear transition module (RTM).
Ta bl e 7 - 50 shows the Point-to-point Connectivity Record Link Descriptors for the ATCA-
9305.
Note: For actual Point-to-Point connectivity Records for your configuration, query the IPMI controller.

HPM.1 FIRMWARE UPGRADE
The ATCA-9305 IPMC firmware supports a reliable field upgrade procedure compliant with
the HPM.1 specification. The prominent features of the firmware upgrade procedure are:
• The upgrade can be performed either over the payload serial interface or IPMB-0.
• The upgrade procedure is performed while the ATCA-9305 is online and operating
normally.
• The upgrades are reliable. A failure in the download (error or interruption) does not
disturb the ATCA-9305’s ability to continue using the “old” firmware or its ability to
restart the download process.
• The upgrades are reversible. The ATCA-9305 IPMC automatically reverts back to the
previous firmware if there is a problem when first running the new code, and can be
reverted manually using the HPM.1-defined Manual Rollback command.
