SANTA CLARA, Calif. and
TAIPEI, Taiwan, June 3, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Marvell
(NASDAQ: MRVL) – a worldwide leader in providing complete silicon
solutions from mobile communications to storage, Internet of Things
(IoT), cloud infrastructure, digital entertainment, in-home content
delivery and Kinoma® software enabling the "Smart Life and Smart
Lifestyle" – today announced it will incorporate
Microsemi Corporation's (NASDAQ: MSCC) Power over Ethernet (PoE)
power sourcing equipment (PSE) offering into its industry-leading
turnkey manufacture-ready reference designs, bundled with software
solutions. The combined technologies from Marvell and Microsemi
will enable a large range of IoT and other connected network
applications including wireless access points, 4G/LTE small cells,
sensors, IP cameras and lighting.
Pervasiveness of the Ethernet infrastructure has been driving
PoE adoption at a rapid pace enabling a variety of intelligent
networked applications and sensor-embedded smart industries. PoE is
one of the most widely deployed technologies to power connected
devices in an enterprise and small and medium-sized enterprise
(SME) environment. It is a cost-effective way to enable better
communication, collaboration and ease of management without
compromising ease of quick deployment.
The Marvell Prestera® DX family of packet processors enables
secure, high-density and intelligent 10GbE/2.5GbE/1GbE switching
solutions at the access/edge and aggregation layers of
campus, industrial, SME and service provider networks.
"Production-quality reference designs and tightly coupled
software and hardware integration with our ecosystem partners
accelerates time to market for ODMs and OEMs," said Ron Cates, Senior Director, Product Marketing,
Marvell Semiconductor, Inc. "Marvell's Prestera DX packet
processors and Alaska® Ethernet PHYs in combination with
Microsemi's PoE devices are driving industry-leading solutions with
PoE capabilities."
"Microsemi is pleased to offer such a highly integrated PoE
device, enabling an IEEE802.3bt ready PSE solution today," said
Iris Shuker, PoE Marketing Manager
for Microsemi. "The integration between Marvell's switches, PHYs
and Microsemi's PoE reduces overall cost, creating a best-in-class
solution for enterprise and small and medium-sized enterprise
markets."
Microsemi's sixth generation power source equipment (PSE)
solution is highly integrated with only one capacitor per port. A
very low port resistance (less than 350mOhm) enables a high
efficiency, low dissipation design. The architecture enables up to
95W per port. The solution is IEEE802.3 standard compliant (802.3af
& 802.3at) with support for IEEE 802.3bt enabled by a software
upgrade. More information can be found at
http://www.microsemi.com/existing-parts/parts/136528.
Reference designs with Microsemi PoE devices and Marvell
Prestera DX switches are available now.
Marvell will be demonstrating its switching solutions during
Computex June 2–5, 2015 as part of its award-winning, diverse
product portfolio advancing the delivery of cloud services
throughout the ecosystem and powering today's revolutionary Smart
devices.
