PM5372 Overview
Preliminary PM5372 TSE 40 Gbit/s Transport Switching Element.
PM5372 Key Features
- Implements a Time-Space-Time fabric with STS-1/AU-3 granularity
- Provides 64 ingress STS-12 equivalent ports for a total of 64-12 = 768 STS-1 flows
- Supports non-blocking permutation switching of 768 STS-1 flows at STS-1 granularity
- Provides 64 egress STS-12 equivalent ports consisting of 768 STS-1 flows
- Interfaces to STS-48 and STS-192 devices by aggregating 4 and 16 STS12 equivalent flows respectively
- Supports multicast and broadcast of STS-1 streams
- Supports STS-12 equivalent flows with an extended 8B/10B protocol over 777.6 MHz LVDS links
- Supported by an efficient algorithm to pute control settings for all permutation loads for all supported fabric architec
- 1.8 V CMOS core and 3.3 V CMOS/LVDS input/output
- Requires no external RAMs or logic parts
