ROBOswitch™ 8 FE + 2-GbE Port Switch with On-Chip Packet Buffer
The Broadcom BCM5380M device is a highly integrated solution. It combines all of the functions of a high-speed switch system including packet buffer, PHY transceivers, media access controllers, address management, and a nonblocking switch fabric into a single 0.13 µm CMOS device. It complies with the IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3ab 802.3x specifications including the MAC control, pause frame, and auto-negotiation subsections, providing compatibility with all industry-standard Ethernet, and Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet devices.
This device contains eight full-duplex 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet transceivers and one 10/100/1000BASE-T transceiver, each of which performs all of the physical layer interface functions for 10BASE-T Ethernet on Category 3, 4, or 5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable and 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet on Category 5 UTP cable.
