The Ethernet Switch Advanced L2/VLAN 48x1G + 5x10G is a sophisticated solution for high-throughput environments, combining 48 ports of 1 Gigabit Ethernet with 5 ports of 10 Gigabit Ethernet. This switch is engineered to support full wire-speed operation across all ports and sizes of Ethernet frames, making it ideal for enterprise-level networking.
Built upon a shared buffer memory architecture, it offers head-of-line-blocking-free switching with flexible dynamic buffer memory distribution per port and priority. The architecture supports advanced scheduling with both strict priority and hierarchical scheduling like WRR. Enhanced with a processor interface, this switch facilitates the configuration of tables and registers, coupled with a packet-based CPU port for direct Ethernet frame interaction.
Designed for minimal software setup, this IP core immediately forwards Ethernet frames upon setup, with built-in hardware capabilities for MAC address learning, reducing the need for CPU involvement. Its robust VLAN tagging, translation, and priority management features add layers of versatility for complex networking environments.
