Microchip Technology KSZ9563R 3-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switches

Microchip Technology KSZ9563R 3-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switches integrate two Gigabit Ethernet PHY ports and one configurable Gigabit MAC port with RGMII, MII, or RMII interfaces. The switches deliver non-blocking wire-speed performance, advanced traffic management, and IEEE 1588v2 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) support for industrial networking applications.

Designed for industrial Ethernet, automation, and real-time networking systems, the Microchip KSZ9563R devices support VLANs, Quality of Service (QoS), access control lists, and IEEE 802.1X authentication. Integrated EtherGreen™ power-management features, flexible SPI/I2C management interfaces, and LinkMD® cable diagnostics help simplify network design while improving efficiency and reliability.
