8-GbE Port Switch with Integrated SerDes
The Broadcom BCM5389 device is a highly integrated solution ideally suited for standalone Gigabit Ethernet switches and Gigabit Ethernet control plane and backplane applications. It combines all the functions of a high-speed switch system, including packet buffer, SerDes, media access controllers, address management, and a nonblocking switch fabric into a single 0.13 μm CMOS device.
The BCM5389 complies with IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3ab, and 802.3x specifications, including the MAC control, pause frame, and autonegotiation subsections, providing compatibility with all industrystandard Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet devices.
