Key Features
- 10-port Carrier Ethernet switch with integrated CuPhy physical layer enabling single-chip copper access network line cards without external PHY ICs
- Carrier-grade OAM and QoS support with hardware-accelerated fault management for ITU-T G.8031 and Y.1731 compliance in metro Ethernet deployments
- 324-pin PBGA 18x18 mm package with 3.3 A supply current budget supports full-wire-speed switching across all 10 ports in compact line-card form factors
Applications
The VSC7436XMT is designed for carrier Ethernet access switches, DSL aggregation nodes, and industrial Ethernet infrastructure where 10-port switching with integrated copper PHY reduces line-card component count. Its hardware OAM engine supports Y.1731 performance monitoring across Ethernet service instances, enabling service providers to meet SLA measurement requirements without CPU intervention. The device is also used in industrial automation gateways and smart grid communication nodes requiring deterministic latency and carrier-grade reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the integrated CuPhy in the VSC7436XMT reduce BOM complexity compared to external PHY designs?
By embedding the copper PHY directly alongside the 10-port Ethernet switch fabric, the VSC7436XMT eliminates 10 external PHY ICs and their associated magnetics footprints from the BOM. This integration typically saves 30% to 40% PCB area on a 10-port line card and reduces power distribution complexity, as a single 3300 mA supply rail feeds both switch and PHY logic within the 324-pin PBGA package.
What carrier Ethernet OAM standards does the VSC7436XMT support for service-level monitoring in metro access networks?
The VSC7436XMT supports hardware-accelerated ITU-T Y.1731 OAM including loss measurement, delay measurement, and continuity check message (CCM) processing at up to 1-second intervals across all 10 ports simultaneously. Combined with G.8031 linear protection switching, this allows service providers to detect failures and switch protection paths in under 50 ms without burdening the management CPU.
What thermal and power considerations apply when designing a line card around the VSC7436XMT PBGA-324 package?
The VSC7436XMT draws up to 3300 mA total supply current, which at a typical 1.0 V core rail equates to approximately 3.3 W core power alone. The 18x18 mm PBGA-324 footprint includes a thermal slug, but designers should plan for a heatsink or forced-air cooling in confined enclosures to keep junction temperature below the rated maximum. Power integrity requires multiple decoupling capacitors placed within 1 mm of the BGA ball field to suppress switching noise on the 10-port Ethernet data paths.
