VSC3340 PRODUCT BRIEF 6.5 Gbps 40 × 40 Crosspoint Switch with Low Power Green Modes Vitesse’s multichannel 6.5 Gbps crosspoint switch provides a cost-effective solution for high-speed copper interconnects Highlights • DC to 6.5 Gbps operation • 40 × 40 fully non-blocking switch capability • Protocol-independent operation • Advanced EQ • Low power green modes • Small 23 mm × 23 mm form factor Applications • HDMI/DVI/DisplayPort switching/routing • Broadcast video routers • Broadcast video switchers The VSC3340 is the industry’s highest performance signal integrity crosspoint solution with low power green modes for optimal reduced power operation. The VSC3340 is uniquely capable of addressing a wide array of routing, switching, and signal integrity issues across storage, blade server, broadcast video, telecommunications, and Ethernet applications. In video applications, the VSC3340 can support HDMI, DVI, DisplayPort, or SDI HDTV protocols. The VSC3340 features a 40 × 40 non-blocking, multicasting switch core with ports running at any rate up to 6.5 Gbps. The VSC3340 architecture provides protocol-independent operation that allows each channel to run independently, and optimizes low power operation when running at lower speeds. The VSC3340 includes both register and static programming modes. The VSC3340 incorporates Vitesse’s fourth-generation input equalization and pre-emphasis I/O capability for the industry’s latest generation protocols. The device can perform signal fanout, loopback, and protection switching. It can also regenerate signals severely compromised by transmission losses. Vitesse’s industry-proven equalization provides highly effective compensation for deterministic jitter across a wide range of high-speed interconnect applications. • PCIe repeater applications • Blade servers • Storage servers • Telecom VSC3340 Line Card and Central Switch Card Applications Serial DC to 6.5 Gbps Serial DC to 6.5 Gbps XFP PHY ASIC or FPGA 40 VSC3340 Line Card 40 VSC3340 Backplane Switch Card Using the VSC3340 in high-speed line cards ensures best-in-class I/O performance up to 6.5 Gbps with EQ technology to compensate for connector, backplane, and FR-4 loss.
