Fujitsu Introduces the First 802.3ap (KR) Compliant 10GbE Switch IC, Featuring the Industry's Highest Density of 26 Ports and Lowest Power Consumption

Fujitsu has introduced the 26-port MB86C69RBC, 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) switch IC, featuring support of 10Gbps serial interface for Ethernet backplane standardized as 802.3ap (KR) on all 26 ports, as well as SFP+ capability.

Compact, Low Latency, Fully Integrated MB86C69RBC is Ideal for Backplane, Blade Server, Advanced TCA and Enterprise Applications

Fujitsu has introduced the 26-port MB86C69RBC, 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) switch IC, featuring support of 10Gbps serial interface for Ethernet backplane standardized as 802.3ap (KR) on all 26 ports, as well as SFP+ capability.

Targeting data-center and telecom equipment applications, the MB86C69RBC integrates a comprehensive set of advanced Ethernet, Layer-2, data-center bridging, QoS and Layer-3 capabilities, along with 2.9MB buffer memory, more than any comparable switch chip. The new IC embeds 26 multi-rate high-bandwidth ports and a pair of 10/100/1000GbE management ports into a highly integrated package measuring a compact 35mm x 35mm.

Integrated, programmable, high-speed SerDes allows each port to directly support the 10GBASE-KR standard for backplane serial connectivity, along with 1000BASE-KX. Fully compliant 10Gbps serial XFI/KR capabilities allow designers to achieve connectivity using fewer physical connections to the backplane or the XFP/SFP+ optical module, all with the lowest power consumption and overall switching latency in the industry. The result is maximum flexibility for applications such as high-density backplane switching, blade server switching, microTCA MCH designs, and Advanced TCA carrier-board backplane-fabric applications.
