Abstract

Methods and systems for processing Ethernet data are disclosed and may comprise receiving packetized data by an Ethernet switch integrated within a single gigabit Ethernet IP phone chip. A first portion of the received packetized data may be switched within the single gigabit Ethernet IP phone chip, between a first on-chip port that routes data internally for processing within the single gigabit Ethernet IP phone chip and a second on-chip port that routes data externally for off-chip processing. The packetized data may be received by a 10/100Base Ethernet physical interface transceiver (PHY) integrated within the single gigabit Ethernet IP phone chip. The packetized data may be received by a gigabit Ethernet PHY. The received packetized data may be communicated from the gigabit Ethernet PHY to the Ethernet switch integrated within the single gigabit Ethernet IP phone chip for switching.
