Ethernet Switch Chips
Ethernet is the most widely installed local area network (LAN) technology. Ethernet is a link layer protocol in the TCP/IP stack, describing how networked devices can format data for transmission to other network devices on the same network segment, and how to put that data out on the network connection. It touches both Layer 1 (the physical layer) and Layer 2 (the data link layer) on the OSI network protocol model. Ethernet Switch is a computer Commercial device that connects devices together on a computer network, by using packet switching to receive, process and forward data to the destination device. Ethernet Switch Chips is the core component of Ethernet Switch. Ethernet Switch Chips contains the GE / XE Interface (MAC / PHY) module, CPU interface module, input and output matching / modification module, MMU module, L2 forwarding module, L3 forwarding module, a security module, traffic classification modules and other modules.
