The VSC7426 is the industry’s first fully integrated 24-port Gigabit Ethernet (GE) switch with 12 copper PHYs in a single package. In conjunction with Microsemi’s 12-port PHY VSC8512 or VSC8522, a 24-port switch can be designed using only two ICs. The VSC7426 leverages Microsemi’s new 65 nm SimpliPHY™ technology, resulting in the one of the most cost-effective and lowest power consumption devices in the industry
