Use Broadcom's 10-Gigabit Ethernet transceivers to develop compact, affordable 10-Gigabit Ethernet optical systems for high-speed LANs and campus and metropolitan area networks. Broadcom's transceivers offer the highest integration with the lowest power, enabling manufacturers to build affordable 10 Gigabit Ethernet-based SFP+ or XFP optical modules line cards linking Gigabit Ethernet with 10-Gigabit Ethernet traffic. Broadcom's family of 10GBASE-T chips offers low power, small size, interoperability, and backwards compatibility over twisted pair cabling, which is well suited for distances of up to 100m over structured cabling in the data center.
