• Integrated high-performance SerDes
• Integrated XAUI™ SerDes for all 20 10-GE ports
• Uses single SerDes lane per port at GE speeds
• 200-Gbps switching capacity at line rate
• Support for eight classes of service (CoS) per port
• Support for Deficit Round Robin, Weighted Round Robin and
Strict priority scheduling
• Support for a cut-through switching mode
• Port trunking and remote mirroring support
• Fully integrated data and address memory on a single chip
• Advanced packet flow control
• Head of line blocking prevention
• Full-duplex flow control (802.3x)
• ContentAware™ network processing per port
• Line rate multifield packet classification
• Supports IEEE 802.1p, TOS/DiffServ, rate limiting, policing,
priority tagging, and remapping
• Extended security and ACL filtering
• Full IPv6 routing support
• Enhanced security and management capabilities
• Low power consumption
• High level of integration and low power consumption enable
system vendors to build high-performance, high-port-density
10-Gigabit Ethernet switches in the same form factor as
existing GE solutions.
• Built-in, high-speed serial interfaces with integrated memory
eases and accelerates system design, while reducing cost and
conserving board space.
• Built-in Layer 3 routing support enables embedded switch to
become an extension of the enterprise core network.
• Advanced load balancing and strong user isolation features
facilitate the implementation of utility computing services.
• Integrated security features and enhanced management
capabilities improve network reliability and lower cost of
ownership for BCM56800-based solutions.
• Broadcom switch API compatibility enables software reuse
and faster time to market.
APPLICATIONS
