• Manufacturer Part Number: bcm56330
• Description: 76 Gbps Integrated Multilayer Ethernet Switch
• Manufacturer: Broadcom Corp.

Each of the BCM56330 family is a highly integrated 24-port multilayer
GbE switch with four ports of 10-GbE XAUI uplinks or four ports of
1-GbE/2.5-GbE uplinks. The GbE ports support SGMII as well as
integrated SerDes for direct fiber (1000BX and 100FX) connectivity.
The BCM56330 family are purpose-built for next-generation Enterprise
and Metro Ethernet access applications. This product family offers an
8-port GbE configuration with uplinks or 24-port GbE configuration
with uplinks. Two BCM56330 devices can be connected together by two
ports of 13G XAUI-over-HiGig stacking protocol to create a
nonblocking 48-port switch.
The BCM56330 family supports nonblocking L2 switching and L3
routing, which are key features for Carrier Ethernet and enterprise
networking applications.
The BCM56330 family delivers key Metro Ethernet features:
