Pyra Docking Station with Ethernet?

[WizardStan]

I'm not sure what you're getting at.

The OMAP5 has two USB2.0 host only ports, and one USB3.0/2.0 OTG port. The USB3.0 micro-AB is much wider than the USB2.0 micro-AB port, so it is conceivable that EvilDragon may ignore the 3.0 features and just leave it with the USB2.0 features to save some space. Possible, but not very likely; it wouldn't make sense for him to have two USB2.0 hosts in favour of the USB3.0 OTG.

Mentioned it before, but ED had confirmed 2 normal sized USB 2.0 and 1 micro USB 3.0 at the back of the Pyra on the German boards.

Ahh, no sorry, I was not talking about physical connector dimensions, just about what ports will have what capabilities

Unfortunately, the Pyra does not have USB-C

Does have Micro USB 3.0 and perhaps it can be put in a proper mode to run some kind of docking station.

These do exist, not sure on compatibility:

Wow...i completly forgot this Thread.

Nice Question:
Do we have Ethernet over HDMI in the Pyra?

I did not found the Answer in this Thread here.

When yes i can maybe us a HDMI Cable with Ethernet Connector for the Pyra.

Nice Idea

I... don't know. Apparently ethernet over HDMI came in with 1.4 and IIRC we support version 1.4 of the HDMI standard on the Pyra. Whether the system exposes a network port over that interface and I've not come across anyone testing it yet, so no doubt it's currently broken, but that's not to say it couldn't be made to work.

Mandatory vs. optional. You can't get your dedicated desktop video card to output a network signal, either, but it still claims to support HDMI 1.4+.

I'm pretty sure you won't find this feature on anything outside of multimedia devices for your home cinema. This is not something that you just get for free from an HDMI controller, just like its audio channel (dedicated video cards: separate audio codec on the PCIe bus!) you need dedicated hardware for that.
