24-Port 10-GbE and 4-Port Multilayer Gigabit Ethernet Switch
The BCM56820 is a 24-port 10GbE multilayer switch with four GbE ports; each of the 10-GbE ports can also support 1 GbE, 2.5 GbE, or 10 GbE, as well as HiGig™/HiGig2™ protocols.
The BCM56820 supports line rate, full-duplex switching for 240+ Gbps and has built-in Layer 2, VLAN, and Layer 3 tables with 10 Quality of Service queues per port.
A multistage ingress and egress ContentAware™ Engine enables deep packet inspection and classification provides flexible ingress and egress Access Control Lists (ACL), IPv4/v6 μflow, proprietary headers, and multi-tuple lookups, all at line rate.
