Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:AVGO) today announced the
highest performing router in the industry— Jericho2c+. An industry
first, the Jericho2c+ chip provides 14.4 terabits per second of
advanced routing capabilities and the best power efficiency in the
market. A global technology leader, Broadcom continues to innovate
on its high-end switching and routing silicon portfolio with this
new 7nm router chip, integrating security at line rate on all
network ports.
Purpose built to minimize the power per terabit of bandwidth in
modular chassis and disaggregated distributed system, Jerciho2c+
enables a 36 Port 400GbE line-card with integrated security with
only two chips. This innovative new solution significantly reduces
footprint, complexity, power and costs compared to alternative
solutions that require a far larger number of devices.
“Broadcom’s field proven Jericho, Tomahawk and Trident family of
products are setting the pace for the industry in scalability, port
density and power efficiency,” said Ram Velaga, senior vice
president and general manager, Core Switching Group, Broadcom. “We
are excited to be working with major O.E.M. and software partners
to deliver Data Center Interconnect, edge routing and core routing
systems, scaling to well over 200 terabits per second, for
deployments in mega scale data centers and service provider
networks.”
Core and edge routing solutions rely on flexible packet
processing and feature concurrency. The Jericho2c+ programmable
pipe, large-scale forwarding databases and future-proofing matrix
of programmable elements, provide a set of capabilities that
addresses the most challenging routing requirements. Featuring a
high integration level, Jericho2c+ improves port density, increases
subscribers scale, reduces power per bit, and reduces the total
cost of ownership— thus making it the building block of choice for
future routing networks.
A growing requirement of hyperscalers is to secure all
off-premise connectivity, which requires dedicated Media Access
Control security (MACSec) components. When combining security with
the ongoing migration to 400GE links, the hyperscalers face the
tough challenge of increased power consumption. Jericho2c+
addresses this challenge with integrated line-rate MACSec on all
network interfaces, making it the ideal solution for data center
interconnect, metro and core switches.
“In the past, router vendors had to choose between a flexible
pipe with feature concurrency versus power efficient high-bandwidth
devices,” said Bob Wheeler, principal analyst, The Linley Group.
“Jericho2 disrupted the routing market by providing full routing
capabilities without compromising performance. Jericho2c+ takes
bandwidth, integration, and power efficiency to the next level,
while adding line-rate security.”
Broadcom is committed to supporting a broad software ecosystem
on top of Jericho2c+, including OEM’s and key Open Source
initiatives. Broadcom has worked with its partners to enable SONiC
support on 400G Jericho2c+ VOQ chassis-based systems.
Jericho2c+ and Broadcom’s Ramon fabric element empower the
industry’s largest scale routing and switching solutions, with a
combination of rich features and unmatched power efficiency,
seamlessly integrating into existing Jericho2 and Ramon-based
solutions, and significantly reducing time to market for large
scale 400GE systems.
