1G Deep Buffering Memory Ethernet Switch IP Core

Overview

Advanced switch supporting buffering of large amounts of data in external DDR RAM

The 1G deep buffering memory Ethernet Switch is an advanced Ethernet switching IP that supports buffering large amounts of data in external RAM. The non-blocking Ethernet switch IP core enables fine-grained traffic differentiation for rich implementations of packet prioritization, enabling per port and per queue shaping on egress ports.

The 1G deep buffering memory Ethernet switch IP from Comcores supports MAC learning, VLAN 802.1Q, multicast and broadcast as well as IEEE 1588 transparency. Each port provides a native interface for GMII Ethernet PHY devices.
