Description

BCM5324M is designed based on the field-proven industry leader ROBOSwitch™. BCM5324M combines all the functions of a high-speed switch system including packet buffers, PHY transceivers, media access controllers, address management, and a non-blocking switch fabric into a single 0.13 m CMOS device. BCM5324M complies with IEEE 802.3 specifications, including the MAC control PAUSE frame and autonegotiation subsections, providing interoperability with all industrystandard Ethernet, Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet devices.

BCM5324M is the industry first Ethernet to integrate twenty-four fullduplex 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/FX Fast Ethernet transceivers. Each transceiver incorporates the Broadcom PHY Advance Cable Diagnostic technology, which can detect cable shorts as well as open and measure the cable length. BCM5324M also supports two GMII/RGMII/TBI interfaces, providing flexible 10/100/1000BASE-TX and fiber connectivity.
