Technical Specifications
The Intel WGI217LM is a single-port Gigabit Ethernet PHY that supports 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T Ethernet standards. It is compliant with IEEE 802.3az (Energy Efficient Ethernet), which reduces power consumption during periods of low network activity. It also supports Wake-on-LAN (WoL), allowing systems to be remotely powered on. iAMT (Intel Active Management Technology) enables remote management and troubleshooting capabilities. The device typically connects to a MAC controller via a Reduced Gigabit Media Independent Interface (RGMII). The operating temperature range is typically 0°C to 70°C. It usually operates on a 3.3V power supply.
