BCM56802

16-Port 10-GbE/HiGig2™ Multilayer Switch

The BCM56802 network switch is a high-density, 10-Gigabit Ethernet switching chip solution with 16 ports. All 16 ports can flexibly support HiGig2/HiGig™+/HiGig™/10-GbE/1-GbE. Additionally, the BCM56802 integrates all the SerDes required to interface with applicable copper and fiber physical fabrics.

The integrated SerDes functionality includes 10-Gbps XAUI and 1-Gbps SGMII PHY interfaces. The integrated SerDes complies with the CX-4 standard and PICMG3.1 standard, which ensures interoperability with Ethernet line cards in an Advanced TCA chassis.

  • Sixteen HiGig2/HiGig+/HiGig/10-GbE/1-GbE ports
  • Based on StrataXGS® field-proven, robust architecture
  • 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 GbE solutions.
  • Built-in, high-speed serial interfaces with integrated memory eases and accelerates system design, while reducing cost and conserving board space.
