4.2 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) Pins Multiplexing on MPP
The 88F6281 has 14 dedicated pins for its GbE port. (12 RGMII pins, an MDC pin, and an MDIO
pin).
For the 88F6281, additional GbE interface pins are multiplexed on the MPPs, to serve as the
following interfaces to an external PHY or switch.
Two RGMII ports
One RGMII port and one MMII/MII port
(either port 0 as RGMII and port 1 as MMII/MII or port 0 as MMII/MII and port 1 as RGMII)
One GMII port (port 0)
Table 27 summarizes the GbE port pins multiplexing.
