BCM53115SIPBG BROADCOM Ethernet

BCM53115SIPBG Overview

Optimal solution for consumer switching needs with its support for high-performance line rate capabilities and ability to identify and prioritize different data packet types within the switch while simultaneously assigning voice packets a higher priority for outbound communications.The BCM53115 is poised to drive Gigibit Ethernet (GbE) into the unmanaged and Smart switch, WLAN router and CPE/Gateway markets with its comprehensive Layer 2 feature set, support for both DSL/cable modem and WLAN connectivity, and an industry-leading 5 Gb of switching capacity — all on a single chip.

Features

Highly integrated 65 nanometer (nm) process, non-blocking five-port 10/100/1000 switch silicon that integrates five 10/100/1000 PHYs and two fully integrated GMII/RGMII/MII interfaces Inband Management Ports (IMP) for glueless connection to a CPU or WLAN
Broadcom-patented features provide unique and easy-to-use solutions to network loop and cable problems. LoopDTech™ automatically detects network-debilitating loops, reducing system cost. CableChecker can be run at any time to detect cable length and problems without interrupting live traffic and keep consumers connected
Industry's first 65 nm five-port Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) switch in a single chip enables ubiquitous deployment of GbE to consumer electronic devices and home networking equipment
Flexible solution enables cost-optimized consumer system designs that require scalable interfaces to address every facet of the consumer market segment
