• Manufacturer Part Number: bcm5693
• Description: Scalable 12-port Gigabit Ethernet Layer 2 Switch
• Manufacturer: Broadcom Corp.

The BCM5693 layer 2 switch is a scalable, modular chip solution with
12 ports. Each of these flexible ports supports Gigabit Ethernet or 10/
100-Mbps Ethernet. Additionally, the BCM5693 supports both copper
and fiber physical interfaces. The BCM5693 has a fully integrated
SerDes functionality consisting of a Gigabit Ethernet or a SGMII PHY
interface.
The BCM5693 supports advanced packet flow control such as head-of-
line blocking prevention and IEEE 802.3x compatible full-duplex
control. Moreover, the BCM5693 supports a fully-integrated data and
address memory.
The BCM5693 has a built-in Fast Filter Processor™ that supports Layer
2–Layer 7 ContentAware™ switching, packet filtering and network
processing per port. The FFP has 64 entries.

The BCM5693 switch supports a BSC (Broadcom Serial Control bus)
controller for communicating with external devices such as serial
EEPROM, flash memories, and parallel port devices.
The modular switching architecture of the BCM5693 embodies the
scalability, integration, and performance features that a next-generation
switch requires.
