CARLSBAD, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MaxLinear, Inc. (Nasdaq: MXL) a global leader in wired network solutions, today announced that HiSource, a leading supplier of PoE switches, has selected the MxL86252S and MxL86282S Web-Smart 2.5G Ethernet Switch SoCs for its next generation PoE Ethernet switches that include smart features for network management and optimization. MaxLinear will demonstrate the MxL86282S at Computex 2025, May 20-23, 2025 in Taipei, Taiwan. Smart Ethernet switches simplify network management with user-friendly web interfaces and remote access, allowing administrators to easily configure and monitor network settings. Switch designers utilize the on-board processor in the MxL86282S to power these added smart features. “We’ve integrated CPUs into our 2.5G Ethernet switches to empower our partners to develop smart Ethernet switches with enhanced performance and advanced features sets,” said Vikas Choudhary, Vice President of Connectivity and Storage business at MaxLinear. “By handling data processing tasks directly within the switch, we reduce latency and improve overall network performance.” “We’ve incorporated MaxLinear’s Web-Smart 2.5G Ethernet Switch SoCs into our next-generation PoE switches,” said Jack Mao, Chief Executive Officer at HiSource. “The integrated CPUs, 2.5G PHYs, and advanced features of these SoCs allow us to provide our customers with high-performance, reliable, and easy-to-manage networking solutions.” MxL86282S Key Features and Benefits: Highly Integrated: Eight integrated Ethernet 2.5GBASE-T PHYs that support four data rates: 2500, 1000, 100, and 10Mbps. Two optional 10G SERDES uplink ports that provide additional flexibility for network configurations. And one integrated CPU to enable web-smart applications. Low Power Consumption: Under 700mW per PHY. Supports the Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) feature to reduce idle mode power consumption. Offers additional power savings modes for short cables, through EEE, and no-link detection. Power saving at the system level is also possible with the wake-on-LAN (WoL) feature. Switching Performance: Unblocking wire-speed switching between all ports to support all ports at full rate without packet loss. Future-Proof Features: A programmable packet parser and a powerful classification engine allow future-proof designs that enable various data traffic types. The MxL86282S supports IPv4 and IPv6, HTTPS security, IGMPv1/IGMPv2/IGMPv3 multicast forwarding, and MLDv1/MLDv2 snooping. Advanced Features: Include: VLAN, QinQ, QoS, loop detection, ACL, and traffic shaping. The MxL86282S and MxL86252S are available now in RoHS compliant, green/halogen free 12mm x 12mm BGA packages.
