Link Street
7-Port Fast Ethernet Switch with 802.1Q
88E6063

The Marvell Link Street family of low power Fast Ethernet (FE) switches provides industry-leading functionality and price-performance ratio for the cost-sensitive Small Ofce/Home Ofce (SOHO) gateway/switching market and enterprise desktop switching market. The Link Street 88E6063 device is a 7-port Quality of Service (QoS) switch integrating a high-performance switching fabric with four priority queues, a high-speed address look-up engine, ve 10/100 Ethernet digital PHY ports, two MII ports, seven independent Media Access Controllers (MACs), Virtual Cable Tester (VCT) technology for advanced cable diagnostics, 1Mb of memory, and Spanning Tree support. Other advanced features include 802.1p/IPv4/IPv6 trafc classication, 802.1Q VLAN, extensive RMON counters and special power management techniques for lowest power dissipation. The 88E6063 switch has optimizations for faster packet routing and is an ideal product for low cost enterprise-class desktop switches, advanced broadband gateway routers and Multi-Tenant Unit (MTU) gateways.

FEATURES BENEFITS

High-speed switch fabric Integrated 1 Mb on-chip memory High-performance look-up engine with support for up to 2,048 MAC address entries with automatic learning and aging QoS support with four trafc classes QoS determined by destination MAC address, port ID, IEEE 802.1p tags, IPv4 Type of Service (TOS), Differentiated Services (DiffServ), and IPv6 trafc class Port VLAN and 802.1Q VLAN support 802.1Q VLAN support for up to 64 VLANs 802.1Q VLAN processing per port and VLAN tagging and untagging Multiple address databases (up to 16) SNMP and trafc snooping support Extensive RMON statistics counters IGMP snooping (IPv4) and MLD snooping (IPv6) Supports a low cost 25 MHz XTAL clock source CMOS low power dissipation PAVE = less than 1W
APPLICATIONS

Provides true non-blocking switching performance Reduces cost and enhances performance Supports a large number of Ethernet nodes Ideal for supporting prioritized packet streams for time critical and multimedia trafc Supports the most number of trafc priority schemes in its class Provides Layer 2 rewall protection Support both port-based membership or 802.1Q VLAN-based membership schemes Supports full IEEE 802.1Q VLAN features Allows packet routing without modication of the MAC address Enhances manageability SNMP support for better network management Allows better monitoring of trafc running on the network Helps to reduce overall Bill of Material (BOM) cost Eliminates expensive heatsinks or fans and permits the use of low cost and small enclosures

The Marvell Link Street family of products provides industry-leading functionality for low cost integrated switches. The 88E6063 switchs high integration, low power, and two extra ports save BOM costs and support many applications with few additional active components in a small footprint. The exibility of the 88E6063 switch comes from its conguration options and integration. The device supports an optional EEPROM to override any desired QoS default settings. The 88E6063 switch contains PHYs, LED drivers, voltage regulator logic, QoS switch logic, and memory. The only active components required to implement a complete 88E6063 10/100 Ethernet switch are a 25 MHz crystal clock source and two low cost PNP transistors used by the 88E6063 devices voltage regulator to generate 1.5V and 2.5V from 3.3V.
