Connects host processors, network switches, and controller ASICs to the PHY layer. USXGMII, XFI, 5000BASE-X, 2500BASE-X, 1000BASE-X (SGMII)
While EEE typically requires both ends of a cable to support the standard, Broadcom incorporates its exclusive . This feature allows the BCM84886 to auto-negotiate and pass power-saving benefits down the line to legacy, non-EEE compliant link partners. System power drops automatically during periods of low link utilization. 2. Advanced Hardware-Assist Synchronization bcm84886 exclusive
: Supports IEEE 1588-2008 PTP version 2 for precise time-stamping in synchronized networks. Technical Specifications Interface Support XFI, USXGMII, 5000BASE-X, 2500BASE-X, 1000BASE-X (SGMII) Max Frame Size Supports jumbo packets up to 18 KB Core Voltage Low-power 1.0V CMOS core Operating Distance Up to 100m over CAT6a UTP cable Industry Application System power drops automatically during periods of low
The robust architecture ensures stable operation over worst-case twisted-pair (UTP) cabling scenarios. Technical Specifications Interface Support XFI
