Intel® Ethernet Controller I210 Series
Is there a suitable alternative available to replace a product from this series?
This part is not normally stocked on the shelves of DigiKey at this time. However, It may be possible to order it as a non-catalog item. If this this is possible, manufacturer lead times, minimum quantities and pricing would be applicable.

Alternative Options
Looking at the I210 options, only the CL and The CS offer an embedded option. That chip is 9mm x 9mm.
While looking into the specifications on a detailed level is not possible since the supplier keeps that information closely guarded, I believe I did find an option that would at least be worth taking a look at. I do recommend on having an engineer request the proper data from Intel and analyze the parts compatibility before ordering.
