Board Rework Required
For the SMA tests to work correctly, you must modify your board. The Ethernet PHY
and transceiver SMA connectors use the same transceiver path. The board ships with
the transceiver path connected to the Ethernet PHY. A solder modification is required
to change the transceiver path from the Ethernet PHY to the transceiver SMA
connectors.
To avoid damage to your board, have an experienced technician perform the board
modifications.
