Mechanical Information
Height Profile
The figure below illustrates the height profile of the Ethernet FMC. Note that the quad RJ45 connector with integrated magnetics has a maximum height of 13.84mm; this limits the Ethernet FMC for mating only with FMC connectors that are located close to the edge of the carrier board. In other words, the Ethernet FMC must be able to extend over the edge of the carrier board to allow for clearance of the RJ45 connector. All of the Xilinx development boards provide this level of clearance and are designed with the FMC connectors in close proximity to the edge of the board.
The figure below displays an example of a carrier board with an FMC connector that is located in close proximity to the board edge. The Ethernet FMC is limited to mating with this type of carrier board only.

Mezzanine fastening hardware
For mechanical fastening of the mezzanine card to the carrier board, the Ethernet FMC comes with 2x hex standoffs. It is recommended to use a machine screw on each of these standoffs to fix the mezzanine card to the carrier board.
