The Marvell¨ Yukonª 32-bit (88E8001) and 64-bit (88E8010) family of single-chip desktop and server network
connectivity solutions offers unprecedented integration of MarvellÕs market-leading Gigabit PHY and MAC technology
with the industryÕs most comprehensive software driver suite. The Marvell Yukon devices are offered in an ultrasmall form factor, and are ideally suited for client and server Network Interface Card (NIC), LAN on Motherboard
(LOM) and embedded applications. The Yukon productsÕ deep memory buffers maximize throughput while requiring
low PCI bus and CPU utilization, eliminating the need for costly external memory and associated board space. The
Marvell Yukon products are the Þrst to utilize the CompanyÕs Virtual Cable Testerª (VCT) technology for advanced
cable diagnostics, reducing network installation and support costs. Marvell offers a complete driver suite and
hardware reference design for fast time-to-market implementations supporting the Yukon products.
