2 Uplink ports are SFP cages which support 1000 Base-X tmini GBIC modules.
Power is supplied via a 230 volt mains connector, with an internal power supply for 12 Volt.
The board has 2 console connectors, either via a uart-usb controller (CY7C65211) or via a CISCO-style RS232 RJ45 plug. Connection is 38400 8N1. The USB connector takes precedence, however is not activated by U-Boot, but only during OS boot.
There is 1 main PCB and a small PCB with 3 shift register logic chips to control the LEDs.
It ships with a bootloader based on Realtek's SDK for RTL83xx SoCs and Linux 3.18 based on Realtek's second generation SDK. It has a web interface for all management functions.
There is experimental hardware support for the device in OpenWrt. SFP does not work. Console via USB does not work.
