Feature-enhanced seven-port switch to the industry-leading BCM5325E RoboSwitch™.
●This device combines all the functions of a high-speed switch system, including packet buffers, PHY transceivers, Media Access Controllers (MACs), address management and a non-blocking switch fabric, into a 65 nm LP process. The BCM53101 contains five full-duplex 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet transceivers connected to the five on-chip 10/100 MACs. In addition, a sixth 10/100 MAC is available through the MII/RvMII interface. The BCM53101 also features a 10/100/1000 MAC, which can be used to connect to an external CPU via the RGMII/MII/RvMII interface.
