Before you talk about gigabit Ethernet on a cost reduced platform, ask yourselves
if the processor can actually deliver even 100 megabits per second. Most disk
drives on the target machine can only save data at perhaps 30 megabytes per second.
That is only three times better than the 100 MB/s Ethernet can deliver.
How much extra cost is it worth to get a three-fold improvement in transfer times?
How much data are you planning to transmit?
How important is it to be able to transmit a file in 0.4 milliseconds instead of 4
milliseconds?

Why leave out the hub, doesn't it ease programming?
A hub is just there to reduce cabling to one.
For the neato demo by sales folks. Who cares if it needs 2 cables
during devel if it drives the selling price up?I think the AM3558 has an ethernet interface that just needs a different PHY
I think the
ethernet is currently through USB, which can't support gigabit... how
will you interface the gigE?
chip to be 1000/100/10 functional.
Do you use KiCAD? If not, would you? Then we could collaborate some.
What do you know about sample availability? Know who to call for a AM3559 sample?
