Problems solved by technology

[0002] The server usually has a network interface that supports the Network Controller Sideband Interface (NCSI, Network Controller Sideband Interface) function, but in the conventional design specification requirements, the simplified independent media interface (RMII, Reduced Media Independent Interface) of NCSI is required. The cable length is within 20 inches, which severely limits the structural layout of the motherboard

Abstract

The invention provides a method for determining the length of an interface cable, which comprises the steps of: determining a first signal duration from an oscillator to a media interface and a second signal duration from the oscillator to the media interface through a baseboard management controller, the first signal duration at least corresponding to a clock signal, the second signal duration at least corresponding to a clock signal and a data signal, and the clock signal and the data signal at least meeting a time alignment condition; determining a third signal duration between the baseboard management controller and the media interface based on the first signal duration and the second signal duration; and determining the cable length from the baseboard management controller to the media interface based on the third signal duration. Meanwhile, the invention further provides a device for determining the length of an interface cable.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to computer hardware layout technology, in particular to a method and device for determining the length of an interface cable. Background technique [0002] The server usually has a network interface that supports the Network Controller Sideband Interface (NCSI, Network Controller Sideband Interface) function, but in the conventional design specification requirements, the simplified independent media interface (RMII, Reduced Media Independent Interface) of NCSI is required. The cable length is within 20 inches, which severely limits the structural layout of the motherboard. Contents of the invention [0003] In view of this, the embodiments of the present application are expected to provide a method and device for determining the length of an interface cable. [0004] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present application is achieved in this way: [0005] According to an aspect of the...
