My company is attempting to produce a secure switch based on the Altera Stratix II (EP2S60) board. Unfortunatley, Altera no longer sells the Ethernet Development Kit. We're attempting to build a replica of the daughter card that came with the kit from Altera's designs, but it would be useful to have a working example of the card for comparison purposes.
