Ethernet Packet Switch 1G
Overview
Comcores Ethernet Packet Switch 1G IP core is an advanced switch supporting buffering of large amounts of data in external RAM. The non-blocking Ethernet switch IP core enables fine-grained traffic differentiation for rich implementations of packet prioritization enabling per port and per queue shaping on egress ports.
The switch supports MAC learning, VLAN 802.1Q, multicast and broadcast as well as IEEE 1588 transparency. Each port provides a native interface for GMII Ethernet PHY devices.

The Ethernet Subsystem comes in different variations and can be delivered integrated with TimeStamping Unit, IEEE 1588 PTP Software Stack and later also with OMA Controller. The richly...
Delivering timing accuracy in 5G networks – IEEE 1588 PTP Whitepaper
WHITEPAPER - Delivering timing accuracy in 5G networks How IEEE 1588 PTP has evolved to meet the stringent time synchronization requirements of 5G In mobile networks, time synchronization has always been important. Each new generation of mobile networks has driven the need for increased precision and accuracy in synchronization standards and solutions. Nevertheless, 5G is different. 5G time synchronization requirements are the most demanding seen to date and have elevated the importance of...
Accelerate time-to-market with Ethernet TSN solutions using Comcores IP
WHITEPAPER - Accelerate time-to-market with Ethernet TSN solutions Accelerate time-to-market with reliable Ethernet TSN solutions using Comcores IP. Ever since its introduction in 1973, the Ethernet protocol has expanded and evolved to support every conceivable connectivity application. Ethernet is designed to be a non-deterministic packet-based network, but this also means that Ethernet cannot satisfy the needs of applications that require time-critical, fail-safe operation. These...
