24-Port FE and 2-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch with One 10-GbE/HiGig+™ Port
The BCM56101 is the fifth generation of the highly-integrated and cost-effective Broadcom StrataSwitch® and StrataXGS® product line in a single-chip solution, with 24FE, two GE, and one 10-GbE/HiGig+ uplink ports. The uplink port can operate in two modes:
10-GbE switching mode
HiGig+ uplink mode
The integrated 10-GbE switching port is a CX-4 compliant XAUI interface. The HiGig+ uplink interface is used to connect to other StrataXGS devices in a larger stacking system or to the BCM5675/BCM5676 Switch Fabric via a backplane in a multislot redundant chassis system.
