4-Port 10-GbE/HiGig+™ Multilayer Switch
The BCM56511 is the fifth generation of the highly-integrated and cost-effective StrataSwitch and StrataXGS product line. The BCM56511 is a single-chip solution with four 10-GbE/HiGig+ uplink ports.
The uplink ports can operate in two modes: 10-GbE switching mode and HiGig+ uplink mode. The integrated 10-GbE switching ports are CX-4 compliant XAUI™ interfaces. The HiGig+ uplink interface is used to connect to other StrataXGS devices in a larger stacking system or to the BCM56700/BCM5675 switch fabric via a backplane in a multi-slot redundant chassis system.
