## Ethernet Connector

P9 is a two pin JST-GH connector provides the 100Base-T1 “two wire” Ethernet connection. The connection can plug directly into a MR-T1ETH8 network switch or other mobile robotics boards such as NavQPlus or FMURT6.&#x20;

You may need to create a simple adapter cable to adapt to other systems (such as automotive devices) which have 100Base-T1 Ethernet.&#x20;

Automotive 100Base-T1 Ethernet uses two wires to provide full duplex 100Mbps Ethernet signaling without the need for large or heavy magnetics like 100Base-TX Ethernet. The signals are capacitively coupled and there is a simple filter network before external signals reach the PHY.&#x20;

The Yellow LED (D88) on the backside of the PCB indicates the link status. Flashing indicates there is a link.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://nxp.gitbook.io/mr-canhubk344/hardware/connectors-and-user-i-o/100base-t1-ethernet.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
