the broadcom BCM5304M is a five-port 10/100base-t/tx integrated switch targeted at cost-sensitive fast ethernet managed switch systems, soho routers and voip telephony systems. the device contains four full-duplex 10base-t/100base-tx fast ethernet transceivers, each of which performs all of the physical layer interface functions for 10base-t ethernet on category 3, 4 or 5 unshielded twisted-pair (utp) cable and 100base-tx fast ethernet on category 5 utp cable. the BCM5304M device provides a highly integrated solution. it combines all of the functions of a high-performance switch system including transceivers, media access controllers, address management, mib statistic gathering/reporting, 802.1d spanning tree protocol support, and a non-blocking switch controller into a single monolithic 0.35 cmos device. it complies with the ieee 802.3, 802.3u, and 802.3x specifications, including the mac control pause frame and auto-negotiation subsections, providing compatibility with all industry-standard ethernet and fast ethernet devices. the BCM5304M is designed with broadcom s industry-proven, dsp-based 10/100 transceiver technology. the use of digital technology in the BCM5304M design results in robust performance over a broad range of operating conditions, and mitigates problems inherent to mixed-signal implementations, such as analog offset and on-chip noise.
