platforms
Multilayer switch in high-density 10-Gigabit Ethernet switches
High level of integration and low power consumption enables
system vendors to build high-performance, high-port-density 10-
Gigabit Ethernet switches in the same form factor as existing GbE
solutions.
Built-in, high-speed serial interfaces with integrated memory
eases and accelerates system design, while reducing cost and
conserving board space.
Built-in Layer 3 routing support enables embedded switch to
become an extension of the Enterprise Core network.
Advanced load balancing and strong user isolation features
facilitate the implementation of utility computing services.
Integrated security features and enhanced management
capabilities improve network reliability and lower cost of
ownership for BCM56801-based solutions.
Broadcom switch API compatibility enables software reuse and
faster time-to-market.
