The 9-port Gigabit Ethernet Switch
(CPSW9G) subsystem provides Ethernet packet communication for the device, and
supports the following main features:
- Eight Ethernet ports with
selectable SGMII, XFI, QSGMII and USXGMII interfaces and an internal
Communications Port Programming Interface (CPPI) port
- Synchronous 10/100/1000 Mbit
operation
- Flexible logical FIFO-based
packet buffer structure
- Eight priority level Quality
Of Service (QOS) support (802.1p)
- Support for Audio/Video
Bridging (P802.1Qav/D6.0)
- Support for IEEE 1588 Clock
Synchronization (2008 Annex D, Annex E and Annex F)
- Ethernet port reset
isolation
