generations of switching experience provides rich features,
scalability, and future proof solutions.
Optimized for secure-switching and convergence of applications
and services in the networks.
Complete IPv6 enabled Layer 2 and Layer 3 switch-on-a-chip
solution for easy and rapid development of multilayer switching
applications.
System vendors can build scalable high-performance, high-port
density GbE and 10-GbE LAN switches in several form factors.
Optimized features that span both Enterprise and Service provider
applications.
Multiple CoS and low latency enable the support of VoIP and other
voice, video, and data applications.
Built-in high-speed serial interfaces with Broadcom-unique SerDes
technology ease and accelerate system design, while reducing cost
and conserving board space.
Broadcom switch API compatibility enables software reuse and
faster time-to-market.
