12-Port 144-Gbps Lossless Switch Fabric
The BCM56701 switch fabric is designed to enable next-generation modular and stackable Ethernet switching systems based on Broadcom's industry-leading StrataXGS® family of switches.
The BCM56701 enables vendors to design a chassis system that provides a variety of line cards to match user requirements, multiple generations of upgrades in functionality and port density, and reduce costs with every new generation of line cards.
The BCM56701 delivers wirespeed switching performance across all the ports simultaneously, each HiGig+ interface runs at 12-Gbps full duplex, resulting in 144 Gbps of full-duplex switching bandwidth.
