Posedge intros multi-port Gigabit Ethernet switch IP

HYDERABAD, INDIA: Posedge, a California-based wired/wireless networking semiconductor intellectual property and solutions provider, announced the availability of multi-port Gigabit Ethernet switch sub-system IP to integrate application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) and field-programmable gate array (FPGA).

The multi-port Gigabit Ethernet switch sub-system IP is based on wire-speed secure packet processor (WSP) architecture that is scalable from two-port 10/100 Mbps switch to eight-port 10/100/1000 Mbps switch.

It features IEEE-1588 support, A/V Bridging, EEE support for Gigabit Ethernet, priority based Flow Control, and enhanced VLAN Support, L3 Extensions support, filtering, snooping, and enhanced API.

“Our next generation multi-port Gigabit Ethernet switch IP is best suited for Wireless LAN access points, gateways, set-top boxes in residential and SMB markets. It delivers blistering Gigabit performance, saves energy and provides reliability in one cost-effective, space-saving design,” said Chakra Parvathaneni, VP, Marketing, Posedge.

The company claims that the new solution is scalable from 100 Mbps to 16 Gigabits per sec with flexibility in deployment with options such as CAM based or SRAM based MAC Tables.

The L2+ switch is a self-contained IP with proprietary bus for optimal throughput and can operate in un-managed switch or managed switch modes.
