Hello,

This can be accomplished via 2x DP83869EVM designs that are both set in SGMII to Copper operating mode. In your custom case, you may exchange the wiring for SGMII for PCB traces.

Sincerely,
Gerome

Hello,

Please reference the EVM schematic for DP83869EVM. The connection diagram is essentially 2x instances of the EVM connected together via SGMII.

Sincerely,

Gerome
