Impact

CN9130 SoM does not provide a 25MHz reference clock output, The changes outlined disconnect the SoM reference clock signal and replace it with crystals for both ethernet switch and port 6 phy.

SFP Rate-Select (RS0/RS1)

Note: Clearfog Pro revision 2.2.12 and later already include these changes.

Dis-/Assemble the components from table below:

Impact

R95/R96 enable high-speed mode (10Gbps) for TX and RX on SFP modules.
Without this change CN9130 SoM SFP port will be limited to sgmii (2.5Gbps and lower) speeds even though the cpu side supports up to 10Gbps.
