[{"type":"text","content":"\n\nLow power Ethernet switch is world’s first with eight integrated 2.5G PHYs\n\n\n\n CARLSBAD, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--\nMaxLinear, Inc. (Nasdaq: MXL), a global leader in wired network solutions, today announced it is deepening its commitment to expanding its next-gen Ethernet portfolio with a new line of 2.5G Ethernet products. The family is comprised of new 2.5G Ethernet switches and eight port 2.5G Enterprise PHYs.​ The chipsets will anchor MaxLinear’s already robust Ethernet portfolio - which includes 10/100, 1G, and 2.5G bridges, PHYs and switches. MaxLinear will demonstrate the new 2.5G solutions at Computex 2023, May 30 – June 2, 2023 in Taipei, Taiwan.\n\n\nThe demand for more robust Ethernet products is growing as 2.5G speeds expand into enterprise, retail, and industrial single and multiport applications, and more PCs offer 2.5G Ethernet ports. With new access technologies like xGPON and new Wi-Fi standards increasing the demand for higher LAN bandwidth​, gigabit Ethernet is giving way to 2.5G Ethernet which can extend the bandwidth over existing CAT5e cable infrastructure by a factor of 2.5 comparatively. According to 2022 research by Allied Market Research, the global ethernet switch market was valued at $17.2 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $26.1 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 4.4% from 2022 to 2031. The rising demand for effective network infrastructure for varied application requirements is expected to contribute to this growth.\n\n\n“With the exponential growth of data-intensive applications, cloud services, and emerging technologies, 2.5G Ethernet brings a crucial solution, providing a significant boost in bandwidth without requiring costly infrastructure expenditures,” said Sameh Boujelbene, Vice President, Data Center and Campus Ethernet Switch Market Research at Dell’Oro Group. “As the market continues to evolve, 2.5G Ethernet is poised to become an indispensable tool, empowering businesses to unlock their full potential in the age of data-driven innovation.\"\n\n\n\"MaxLinear has a 20-year history of being an innovator and major supplier of Ethernet PHYs and switches,\" said James Lougheed, Vice President & GM, High Performance Analog at MaxLinear. \"The 2.5G standard has continued to replace lower speed 1G solutions in the market with an exponentially increasing amount of end points ado...
