Switching Solutions Link Street™ 88E6151/88E6181 5-Port/8-Port Gigabit Ethernet QoS Switches 88E6151/88E6181 PRODUCT OVERVIEW The Marvell¨ Link Streetª family of low power Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) switches provides industry leading functionality and price-performance ratio for the cost-sensitive Small Office/Home Office (SOHO) and enterprise desktop switching market. The Link Street 88E6151 (5-port) and 88E6181 (8-port) devices are GbE Quality of Service (QoS) switches integrating a high-performance switching fabric with five (88E6151) or eight (88E6181) SERDES ports. Each switch enables one port to be selected as a SERDES or as a fiber port that can directly drive a fiber module. Other advanced features include 802.1p/IPv4/IPv6 traffic classification, port-based VLANs, four priority queues, a high-speed address look-up engine, and 1 Mb of packet memory and MAC¨ address storage. The Link Street 88E6151/88E6181 devices may be used in conjunction with Marvell Alaska Gigabit PHYs to build a three-chip complete Gigabit switch solution. The Link Street 88E6151/88E6181 switches perform wire-speed Gigabit switching and are ideal products for value-oriented enterprise-class desktop switches.

Link Streetª 8-Port GbE Switch (88E6181) Internal Block Diagram FEATURES ¥ Single-chip integration of a 5-port (88E6151) or 8-port (88E6181) GbE QoS switch ¥ Five/eight integrated triple-speed 10/100/1000 SERDES ports BENEFITS ¥ Provides a complete SOHO switching solution with true non-blocking switching performance and IEEE 802.1p QoS provisions ¥ Provide a glueless interface to Marvell Alaska Gigabit PHYs, including to the 88E1145 quad-port Gigabit PHY and the 88E1111 single-port PHY. Allows triple-speed Ethernet 10/100/1000 Mbps operation ¥ Enables the fiber port to drive a Gigabit fiber module directly ¥ Provides Layer 2 firewall port isolation ¥ Provides true non-blocking switching performance Ð Supports a large number of Ethernet nodes Ð Allow suppression or addition of group membership to provide flexible management by IT managers ¥ Supports the most number of traffic priority schemes in its class ¥ One port is selectable as SERDES or fiber ¥ Port-based VLANs supported in any combination ¥ High-speed switch fabric Ð High-performance look-up engine with support for up to 4,096 MAC address entries with automatic learning and aging Ð Port-based VLANs supported in any combination ¥ QoS determined by destination MAC address, port ID, IEEE 802.1p and multimedia traffic tags, IPv4 Type of Service (ToS), and Differentiated Services (DiffServ) ¥ Link aggregation for any number of ports (port trunking) ¥ Port mirroring ¥ Groups multiple links into one higher speed link ¥ Enables monitoring/analysis tools to monitor data from the network mirrored from each selected port Link Street™-88E6151/88E6181 GbE QoS Switch FEATURES BENEFITS ¥ Multiple address data bases (up to 16) ¥ Chip configuration through SMI ports (MDC/MDIO) or by low-cost Serial EEPROM ¥ CMOS low power dissipation (typical 1.4W for 8-port) ¥ Allows packet routing without modification of the MAC address ¥ Provides an easy, low-cost switching configuration ¥ Eliminates expensive heatsinks or fans and permits the use of low cost and small enclosures APPLICATIONS The Marvell Link Street family of products provides industry-leading functionality for Gigabit integrated switches. The 88E6181 device builds a complete 8-port Gigabit non-blocking QoS switch with all PHYs and memory in a 3-chip solution, when used with two 88E1145 Alaska Gigabit Quad PHYs. The 88E6151 device builds a 5-port Gigabit non-blocking QoS switch in a low-cost 4-layer PCB when used with five 88E1111 Alaska Gigabit Single-Channel PHYs; or alternatively, the 88E6151 product builds a smallest-board-space 3-chip solution when used with one 88E1145 Alaska¨ Gigabit Quad PHY plus one 88E1111 Single-Channel PHY. The 88E6151 switchÕs high integration, low power, and glueless interface to Marvell Gigabit PHYs save BOM costs and support many applications with few additional active components in a small footprint. The 88E6181 and 88E6151 switches have optimizations for fast packet switching and are ideal products for low cost enterprise-class desktop switches and SOHO networks.
