General Description
The Realtek RTL8111H-CG/RTL8111HS-CG 10/100/1000M Ethernet controller combines a triple-speed
IEEE 802.3 compliant Media Access Controller (MAC) with a triple-speed Ethernet transceiver, PCI
Express bus controller, and embedded memory. With state-of-the-art DSP technology and mixed-mode
signal technology, the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS offers high-speed transmission over CAT 5 UTP cable or
CAT 3 UTP (10Mbps only) cable. Functions such as Crossover Detection and Auto-Correction, polarity
correction, adaptive equalization, cross-talk cancellation, echo cancellation, timing recovery, and error
correction are implemented to provide robust transmission and reception capability at high speeds.
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports the PCI Express 1.1 bus interface for host communications with
power management, and complies with the IEEE 802.3u specification for 10/100Mbps Ethernet and the
IEEE 802.3ab specification for 1000Mbps Ethernet. It supports an auxiliary power auto-detect function,
and will auto-configure related bits of the PCI power management registers in PCI configuration space.
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS features embedded One-Time-Programmable (OTP) memory. The
RTL8111H provides a built-in LDO regulator, and the RTL8111HS provides a built-in switching
regulator.
Advanced Configuration Power management Interface (ACPI)—power management for modern
operating systems that are capable of Operating System-directed Power Management (OSPM)—is
supported to achieve the most efficient power management possible. PCI MSI (Message Signaled
Interrupt) and MSI-X are also supported.
In addition to the ACPI feature, remote wake-up (including AMD Magic Packet and Microsoft Wake-Up
Frame) is supported in both ACPI and APM (Advanced Power Management) environments. To support
WOL from a deep power down state (e.g., D3cold, i.e., main power is off and only auxiliary exists), the
auxiliary power source must be able to provide the needed power for the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS. To
further reduce power consumption, the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS also supports PCIe L1.Off and
L1.Snooze.
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports ‘RealWoW!’ technology that enables remote wake-up of a sleeping
PC through the Internet. This feature allows PCs to reduce power consumption by remaining in low
power sleeping state until needed.
Note: The ‘RealWoW!’ service requires registration on first time use.
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports Protocol offload. It offloads some of the most common protocols to
NIC hardware in order to prevent spurious wake-up and further reduce power consumption. The
RTL8111H/RTL8111HS can offload ARP (IPv4) and NS (IPv6) protocols while in the D3 power saving
state.

RTL8111H/RTL8111HS
Datasheet
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports the ECMA (European Computer Manufacturers Association) proxy
for sleeping hosts standard. The standard specifies maintenance of network connectivity and presence via
proxies in order to extend the sleep duration of higher-powered hosts. It handles some network tasks on
behalf of the host, allowing the host to remain in sleep mode for longer periods. Required and optional
behavior of an operating proxy includes generating reply packets, ignoring packets, and waking the host.
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports IEEE 802.3az-2010, also known as Energy Efficient Ethernet
(EEE). IEEE 802.3az-2010 operates with the IEEE 802.3 Media Access Control (MAC) sublayer to
support operation in Low Power Idle mode. When the Ethernet network is in low link utilization, EEE
allows systems on both sides of the link to save power.
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS is fully compliant with Microsoft NDIS5, NDIS6 (IPv4, IPv6, TCP, UDP)
Checksum and Segmentation Task-offload (Large send and Giant send) features, and supports IEEE 802
IP Layer 2 priority encoding and IEEE 802.1Q Virtual bridged Local Area Network (VLAN). The above
features contribute to lowering CPU utilization, especially benefiting performance when in operation on a
network server.
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports Receive-Side Scaling (RSS) to hash incoming TCP connections
and load-balance received data processing across multiple CPUs. RSS improves the number of
transactions per second and number of connections per second, for increased network throughput.
The device features inter-connect PCI Express technology. PCI Express is a high-bandwidth,
low-pin-count, serial, interconnect technology that offers significant improvements in performance over
conventional PCI and also maintains software compatibility with existing PCI infrastructure.
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS is suitable for multiple market segments and emerging applications, such as
desktop, mobile, workstation, server, communications platforms, and embedded applications.

PCI Express Transmit Differential Pair.
PCI Express Receive Differential Pair.
PCI Express Reset Signal (Active Low, 1.8V/3.3V compatible input).
When the PERSTB is asserted at power-on state, the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS
returns to a pre-defined reset state and is ready for initialization and configuration
after the de-assertion of the PERSTB.
Reference Clock Request Signal (Open Drain; Active Low, 1.8V/3.3V compatible
input/output mode with a weak external pull up resistor).
This signal is used by the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS to request starting of the PCI
Express reference clock.
The signal is also used by the L1.off mechanism. In this case, CLKREQB can be
asserted by either the system or RTL8111H/RTL8111HS to initiate an L1 exit.

Functional Description
7.1. PCI Express Bus Interface
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS complies with PCI Express Base Specification Revision 1.1, and runs at a
2.5GHz signaling rate with X1 link width, i.e., one transmit and one receive differential pair. The
RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports four types of PCI Express messages: interrupt messages, error
messages, power management messages, and hot-plug messages. To ease PCB layout constraints, PCI
Express lane polarity reversal is supported.
7.1.1.
PCI Express Transmitter
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS’s PCI Express block receives digital data from the Ethernet interface and
performs data scrambling with Linear Feedback Shift Register (LFSR) and 8B/10B coding technology
into 10-bit code groups. Data scrambling is used to reduce the possibility of electrical resonance on the
link, and 8B/10B coding technology is used to benefit embedded clocking, error detection, and DC
balance by adding an overhead to the system through the addition of two extra bits. The data code groups
are passed through its serializer for packet framing. The generated 2.5Gbps serial data is transmitted onto
the PCB trace to its upstream device via a differential driver.
7.1.2.
PCI Express Receiver
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS’s PCI Express block receives 2.5Gbps serial data from its upstream device
to generate parallel data. The receiver’s PLL circuits are re-synchronized to maintain bit and symbol lock.
Through 8B/10B decoding technology and data de-scrambling, the original digital data is recovered and
passed to the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS’s internal Ethernet MAC to be transmitted onto the Ethernet media.

Datasheet
7.3. PHY Transceiver
7.3.1.
PHY Transmitter
Based on state-of-the-art DSP technology and mixed-mode signal processing technology, the
RTL8111H/RTL8111HS operates at 10/100/500/1000Mbps over standard CAT.5 UTP cable
(100/1000Mbps), 2-pair CAT.5 UTP cable (100/500Mbps), or CAT.3 UTP cable (10Mbps).
GMII (1000Mbps) Mode
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS’s PCS layer receives data bytes from the MAC through the GMII interface
and performs the generation of continuous code-groups through 4D-PAM5 coding technology. These code
groups are passed through a waveform-shaping filter to minimize EMI effects, and are transmitted onto
the 4-pair CAT5 cable at 125MBaud/s through a D/A converter.
MII (100Mbps) Mode
The transmitted 4-bit nibbles (TXD[3:0]) from the MAC, clocked at 25MHz (TXC), are converted into
5B symbol code through 4B/5B coding technology, then through scrambling and serializing, are
converted to 125MHz NRZ and NRZI signals. The NRZI signals are passed to the MLT3 encoder, then to
the D/A converter and transmitted onto the media.
MII (10Mbps) Mode
The transmitted 4-bit nibbles (TXD[3:0]) from the MAC, clocked at 2.5MHz (TXC), are serialized into
10Mbps serial data. The 10Mbps serial data is converted into a Manchester-encoded data stream and is
transmitted onto the media by the D/A converter.
7.3.2.
PHY Receiver
GMII (1000Mbps) Mode
Input signals from the media pass through the sophisticated on-chip hybrid circuit to separate the
transmitted signal from the input signal for effective reduction of near-end echo. The received signal is
processed with state-of-the-art technology, e.g., adaptive equalization, BLW (Baseline Wander)
correction, cross-talk cancellation, echo cancellation, timing recovery, error correction, and 4D-PAM5
decoding. The 8-bit-wide data is recovered and is sent to the GMII interface at a clock speed of 125MHz.
The RX MAC retrieves the packet data from the receive MII/GMII interface and sends it to the RX
Buffer Manager.
MII (100Mbps) Mode
The MLT3 signal is processed with an ADC, equalizer, BLW (Baseline Wander) correction, timing
recovery, MLT3 and NRZI decoder, descrambler, 4B/5B decoder, and is then presented to the MII
interface in 4-bit-wide nibbles at a clock speed of 25MHz.
MII (10Mbps) Mode
The received differential signal is converted into a Manchester-encoded stream first. Next, the stream is
processed with a Manchester decoder and is de-serialized into 4-bit-wide nibbles. The 4-bit nibbles are
presented to the MII interface at a clock speed of 2.5MHz.

7.3.3.
Link Down Power Saving Mode
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS implements link-down power saving; greatly cutting power consumption
when the network cable is disconnected. The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS automatically enters link down
power saving mode ten seconds after the cable is disconnected from it. Once it enters link down power
saving mode, it transmits normal link pulses on its TX pins and continues to monitor the RX pins to
detect incoming signals. After it detects an incoming signal, it wakes up from link down power saving
mode and operates in normal mode according to the result of the connection.
7.3.4.
Next Page
If 1000Base-T mode is advertised, three additional Next Pages are automatically exchanged between the
two link partners. Users can set PHY Reg4.15 to 1 to manually exchange extra Next Pages via Reg7 and
Reg8 as defined in IEEE 802.3ab.
7.4. Power Management
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS complies with ACPI (Rev 1.0, 1.0b, 2.0, 3.0), PCI Power Management (Rev
1.1), PCI Express Active State Power Management (ASPM), and Network Device Class Power
Management Reference Specification (V1.0a), such as to support an Operating System-directed Power
Management (OSPM) environment.
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS can monitor the network for a Wake-Up Frame or a Magic Packet, and
notify the system via a PCI Express Power Management Event (PME) Message, Beacon, or the
LANWAKEB pin when such a packet or event occurs. The system can then be restored to a normal state
to process incoming jobs.
When the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS is in power down mode (D1~D3):
•
The RX state machine is stopped. The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS monitors the network for Wake-Up
events such as a Magic Packet and Wake-Up Frame in order to wake up the system. When in power
down mode, the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS will not reflect the status of any incoming packets in the ISR
register and will not receive any packets into the RX on-chip buffer.
•
The on-chip buffer status and packets that have already been received into the RX on-chip buffer
before entering power down mode are held by the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS.
•
Transmission is stopped. PCI Express transactions are stopped. The TX on-chip buffer is held.
•
After being restored to D0 state, the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS transmits data that was not moved into
the TX on-chip buffer during power down mode. Packets that were not transmitted completely last
time are re-transmitted.
The D3cold_support_PME bit (bit15, PMC register) and the Aux_I_b2:0 bits (bit8:6, PMC register) in PCI
configuration space depend on the existence of Aux power. If aux. power is absent, the above 4 bits are all
0 in binary.

Magic Packet Wake-Up occurs only when the following conditions are met:
•
The destination address of the received Magic Packet is acceptable to the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS,
e.g., a broadcast, multicast, or unicast packet addressed to the current RTL8111H/RTL8111HS.
•
The received Magic Packet does not contain a CRC error.
•
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS driver has set up the needed registers (automatically set), and the
corresponding wake-up method (message, beacon, or LANWAKEB) can be asserted in the current
power state.
•
The Magic Packet pattern matches, i.e., 6 * FFh + MISC (can be none) + 16 * DID (Destination ID)
in any part of a valid Ethernet packet.
A Wake-Up Frame event occurs only when the following conditions are met:
•
The destination address of the received Wake-Up Frame is acceptable to the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS,
e.g., a broadcast, multicast, or unicast address to the current RTL8111H/RTL8111HS.
•
The received Wake-Up Frame does not contain a CRC error.
•
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS driver has set up the needed registers (automatically set).
•
The 16-bit CRC of the received Wake-Up Frame matches the 16-bit CRC of the sample Wake-Up
Frame pattern given by the local machine’s OS. Or, the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS is configured to
allow direct packet wake-up, e.g., a broadcast, multicast, or unicast network packet.
•
The 128 bytes of the received Wake-Up Frame exactly matches the 128 bytes of the sample Wake-Up
Frame pattern given by the local machine’s OS.
Note 1: 16-bit CRC: The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports 32-set 16-bit CRC Wake-Up Frames (covering
128 mask bytes from offset 0 to 127 of any incoming network packet).
CRC16 polynomial=x16+x12+x5+1.
Note 2: 128-byte Wake-Up Frame: The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports 32-set 128-byte Wake-Up
Frames. If enabled, the 16-bit CRC Wake-Up match will be disabled.
The corresponding wake-up method (message or LANWAKEB) is asserted only when the following
conditions are met:
•
The PME_En bit (bit8, PMCSR) in PCI Configuration Space is set to 1.
•
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS may assert the corresponding wake-up method (message or
LANWAKEB) in the current power state or in isolation state, depending on the PME_Support
(bit15~11) setting of the PMC register in PCI Configuration Space.
•
A Magic Packet, LinkUp, or Wake-Up Frame has been received.
•
Writing a 1 to the PME_Status (bit15) of the PMCSR register in the PCI Configuration Space clears
this bit and causes the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS to stop asserting the corresponding wake-up method
(message or LANWAKEB) (if enabled).

When the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS is in power down mode, e.g., D1~D3, the IO, and MEM accesses to
the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS are disabled. After a PERSTB assertion, the device’s power state is restored
to D0 automatically if the original power state was D3cold. There is almost no hardware delay at the
device’s power state transition. When in ACPI mode, the device does not support PME (Power
Management Enable) from D0 (this is the Realtek default setting). The setting may be changed from the
eFUSE, if required.
7.5. Receive-Side Scaling (RSS)
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS complies with the Network Driver Interface Specification (NDIS) 6.0
Receive-Side Scaling (RSS) technology for the Microsoft Windows family of operating systems. RSS
allows packet receive-processing from a network adapter to be balanced across the number of available
computer processors, increasing performance on multi-CPU platforms.
7.5.1.
Receive-Side Scaling (RSS) Initialization
During RSS initialization, the Windows operating system will inform the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS that it
should store the following parameters: hash function, hash type, hash bits, indirection table,
BaseCPUNumber, and the secret hash key.
Hash Function
The default hash function is the Toeplitz hash function.
Hash Type
The hash types indicate which field of the packet needs to be hashed to get the hash result. There are
several combinations of these fields, mainly, TCP/IPv4, IPv4, TCP/IPv6, IPv6, and IPv6 extension
headers.
•
TCP/IPv4 requires hash calculations over the IPv4 source address, the IPv4 destination address, the
source TCP port and the destination TCP port.
•
IPv4 requires hash calculations over the IPv4 source address and the IPv4 destination address.
•
TCP/IPv6 requires hash calculations over the IPv6 source address, the IPv6 destination address, the
source TCP port and the destination TCP port.
•
IPv6 requires hash calculations over the IPv6 source address and the IPv6 destination address
(Note: The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS does not support the IPv6 extension header hash type in RSS).
Hash Bits
Hash bits are used to index the hash result into the indirection table
Indirection Table
The Indirection Table stores values that are added to the BaseCPUNumber to enable RSS interrupts to be
restricted from some CPUs. The OS will update the Indirection Table to rebalance the load.

Rev. 1.2
RTL8111H/RTL8111HS
Datasheet
BaseCPUNumber
The lowest number CPU to use for RSS. BaseCPUNumber is added to the result of the indirection table
lookup.
Secret Hash Key
The key used in the Toeplitz function. For different hash types, the key size is different.
7.5.2.
Protocol Offload
Protocol offload is a task offload supported by Microsoft Windows 7. It maintains a network presence for
a sleeping higher power host. Protocol offload prevents spurious wake-up and further reduces power
consumption. It maintains connectivity while hosts are asleep, including receiving requests from other
nodes on the network, ignoring packets, generating packets while in the sleep state (e.g., the Ethernet
Controller will generate ARP responses if the same MAC and IPv4 address are provided in the
configuration data), and intelligently waking up host systems. The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports the
ECMA (European Computer Manufacturers Association) specification including proxy configuration and
management, IPv4 ARP, IPv6 NDP, and wake-up packets. The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS also supports
optional ECMA items such as QoS tagged packets and duplicate address detection.
7.5.3.
RSS Operation
After the parameters are set, the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS will start hash calculations on each incoming
packet and forward each packet to its correct queue according to the hash result. If the incoming packet is
not in the hash type, it will be forwarded to the primary queue. The hash result plus the BaseCPUNumber
will be indexed into the indirection table to get the correct CPU number. The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS
uses three methods to inform the system of incoming packets: inline interrupt, MSI, and MSIX.
Periodically the OS will update the indirection table to rebalance the load across the CPUs.
7.6. Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE)
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports IEEE 802.3az-2010, also known as Energy Efficient Ethernet
(EEE), at 10Mbps, 100Mbps, 500Mbps, and 1000Mbps. It provides a protocol to coordinate transitions
to/from a lower power consumption level (Low Power Idle mode) based on link utilization. When no
packets are being transmitted, the system goes to Low Power Idle mode to save power. Once packets need
to be transmitted, the system returns to normal mode, and does this without changing the link status and
without dropping/corrupting frames.
To save power, when the system is in Low Power Idle mode most of the circuits are disabled, however,
the transition time to/from Low Power Idle mode is kept small enough to be transparent to upper layer
protocols and applications.
EEE also specifies a negotiation method to enable link partners to determine whether EEE is supported
and to select the best set of parameters common to both devices.
Refer to http://www.ieee802.org/3/az/index.html for more details.

The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS can power down the PHY using board-level control signals.
7.8. Latency Tolerance Reporting (LTR)
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports PCIe 3.0 LTR (Latency Tolerance Reporting).
The LTR mechanism enables Endpoints to report service latency requirements for Memory Reads/Writes.
The CPU utilizes LTR to determine transfers from low power (C7) to high power (C0) mode. See the
PCIe 3.0 specification for details.
7.9. Wake Packet Indication (WPI)
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports Microsoft Wake Packet Indication (WPI) to provide Wake-Up
Frame information to the OS, e.g., PatternID, OriginalPacketSize, SavedPacketSize, SavedPacketOffset,
etc. WPI helps prevent unwanted/unauthorized wake-up of a sleeping computer. Refer to the Microsoft
Windows Hardware Certification Requirements for details.
Note: Wake Packet Indication (WPI) and Wake Packet Detection (WPD) are the same technology terms
defined by Microsoft, which terms both means the NIC is required to capture at least the first 128 bytes of
the packet causing the network wake and generate a status indication to the operating system.
7.10. ‘RealWoW!’ (Wake-On-WAN) Technology
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports Realtek 'RealWoW!' technology that allows the
RTL8111H/RTL8111HS to send keep alive packets to the Wake Server when the PC is in
sleeping mode. Realtek 'RealWoW!' can pass wake-up packets through a NAT (Network
Address Translation) device. This feature allows PCs to reduce power consumption by
remaining in low power sleeping state until needed.
Users can login into the Wake Server via the Internet to wake the selected sleeping PC. Registration of
Account information to the Wake Server is required on first time use.

7.12. Giga Lite (500M)
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports Giga Lite (500M) mode that allows two link partners that both
support 1000Base-T and Giga Lite mode to transmit at 500Mbps data rate if only two pairs (AB pairs)
can be detected in the CAT.5 UTP cable. This feature is a Realtek proprietary feature and it conforms to
the 802.3az-2010(EEE) specification.
7.13. XTAL-Less Wake-On-LAN
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports board level design with an External 25MHz or 48MHz Clock
Source instead of a Crystal.
The external clock source may stop generating the clock when in suspend mode (S3/S4/S5). To support
the Wake-On-LAN function without an external clock source, the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS will
automatically change its source clock from the external clock to an internal self-oscillating auxiliary clock
when it enters suspend mode. Note that when in suspend mode, the auxiliary clock can establish only a
10Mbps link and does not support ARP/NS offload and ECMA ProxZzzy.
7.14. LAN Disable Mode
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS supports ‘LAN Disable Mode’. This mode can use an external signal to
control whether the NIC is enabled or disabled.

Switching Regulator (RTL8111HS Only)
The RTL8111HS incorporates a state-of-the-art switching regulator that requires a well-designed PCB
layout in order to achieve good power efficiency and lower the output voltage ripple and input overshoot.
Note that the switching regulator 1.0V output pin (REGOUT) must be connected only to DVDD10 and
AVDD10 (do not provide this power source to other devices).
9.
LDO Regulator (RTL8111H Only)
The RTL8111H incorporates a linear Low-Dropout (LDO) regulator that features high power supply
ripple rejection and low output noise. The RTL8111H embedded LDO regulator does not require power
inductors on the PCB; only a 1.0V output capacitor between its 1.0V output and analog ground for phase
compensation, which saves cost and PCB real estate.
The output capacitors (and bypass capacitors) should be placed as close as possible to the power pins
(AVDD10 and DVDD10) for adequate filtering.
Note that with regard to voltage conversion efficiency, LDO is inferior to a switching regulator. This
balance between cost, size, and efficiency should be taken into consideration when choosing the regulator
type.
Note: The embedded LDO is designed for the RTL8111H internal use only. Do not provide this power
source to other devices.

RTL8111H/RTL8111HS
Datasheet
10.1. Power Sequence Parameters
The RTL8111H/RTL8111HS does not support fast 3.3V rising under normal circumstances. The 3.3V rise
time must be controlled over 0.5ms.
Rise Time > 0.5ms
No action to take.
Rise Time 0.1ms~0.5ms
If the rise time is between 0.1ms and 0.5ms, the customer MUST ensure that there is at least three times
as much margin for inrush current to the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS so as to be safely under the system’s
3.3V OCP threshold.
For example:
•
Assume customer supply power rise time of the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS is 0.374ms
•
The system 3.3V OCP is 9A
•
The inrush current of other 3.3V devices is 5.64A
The inrush current to the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS must be less than 1.12A, otherwise an unanticipated
system OCP may be triggered. It can be expressed in the following formula:
Inrush current to the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS < (System 3.3V OCP - inrush current of other 3.3V devices)
/3
Rise Time < 0.1ms
If the rise time is less than 0.1ms, there is risk of an unanticipated ESD trigger event, which may cause
permanent damage to the RTL8111H/RTL8111HS.
If there is any action that involves consecutive ON/OFF toggling of the switching regulator source
(3.3V), the design must make sure the OFF state of both the switching regulator source (3.3V) and output
(1.0V) reach 0V, and the time period between the consecutive ON/OFF toggling action must be longer
than 50ms.
