MT7530B

  • The MT7530B is a Gigabit Ethernet switch chipset developed by MediaTek. It is designed to offer high-performance Ethernet connectivity for consumer networking devices such as routers, gateways, and other Ethernet-enabled products. This chip integrates multiple ports and provides various features aimed at improving network management, efficiency, and performance, making it an ideal choice for home and small office networking applications.

Product Description

The MT7530B is designed to be used in home routers, network switches, set-top boxes, gateways, and other Ethernet-enabled devices that require high-speed, reliable, and efficient networking. With 5 Gigabit Ethernet ports, it offers sufficient connectivity for most consumer and small office network setups.

  • Gigabit Ethernet Connectivity: The MT7530B enables Gigabit Ethernet speeds (1000 Mbps) across its 5 ports. The 4 LAN ports allow multiple devices within a home or office to connect to the local network, while the WAN port provides connectivity to the internet or an external network. This provides a high-speed wired network environment for activities such as video streaming, gaming, and other data-intensive applications.

  • Non-blocking Switching Fabric:

    • The non-blocking switching fabric of the MT7530B ensures that data can be transferred seamlessly between multiple devices without interference or delay, even when multiple devices are actively sending and receiving data. This is essential for modern networks where several devices, such as smart TVs, computers, and IoT devices, are constantly connected and need stable and fast connectivity.

  • Energy Efficiency:

    • The MT7530B features Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE), which helps reduce power consumption during low-traffic periods. This feature is particularly valuable in devices that are powered on 24/7, such as routers and gateways. By consuming less power during periods of inactivity, the chipset helps lower the overall energy consumption of the device and contributes to reducing operational costs.

  • Advanced Traffic Management and QoS:

    • The MT7530B provides advanced QoS capabilities to ensure that time-sensitive traffic, such as VoIP calls or live video streaming, is prioritized. This ensures that these applications receive the necessary bandwidth, while less critical traffic, such as file downloads or web browsing, is allocated remaining bandwidth. This helps prevent interruptions or delays in latency-sensitive applications.

  • VLAN Support for Network Segmentation:

    • The VLAN support in the MT7530B allows network administrators to create virtual networks within the same physical network. This enhances security by isolating sensitive data, improving traffic flow, and making it easier to manage large or complex networks. VLANs are especially useful for segregating traffic in environments where multiple departments or user groups require different network policies or security measures.

  • Optimized for Consumer and IoT Devices:

    • The MT7530B is especially well-suited for consumer-grade routers and IoT devices that require reliable, low-latency wired connections. Its compact design and power-saving features make it ideal for always-on devices that require stable and high-performance Ethernet connectivity for smart home hubs, media streaming devices, and connected appliances.


Specification

  • Port Configuration:

    • 5 Gigabit Ethernet Ports: The MT7530B features 4 LAN ports and 1 WAN port, providing the necessary ports for wired network connections in consumer and small office routers or switches.

  • Switching Capacity:

    • The chip has a non-blocking switching fabric, meaning that it can forward data between multiple ports without causing congestion. This ensures smooth data transfer even when several devices are active on the network at the same time.

  • Speed and Throughput:

    • Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbps) support ensures fast and efficient data transfer. This makes the MT7530B suitable for high-bandwidth applications such as streaming, gaming, and large file transfers. The full-duplex capability ensures that data can flow freely in both directions simultaneously, improving the overall efficiency of the network.

  • VLAN Support:

    • The chipset supports 802.1Q VLAN tagging, which allows users to create multiple logical networks within a single physical network. This helps improve security by isolating sensitive traffic and offers better network management.

  • MAC Layer:

    • MAC functions are integrated into the chipset, ensuring that data is handled efficiently at the data link layer. This reduces overhead, increases throughput, and ensures that the network operates smoothly, especially in busy environments with many connected devices.

  • Power Saving Features:

    • The MT7530B features Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) technology, which helps reduce power consumption during periods of low traffic. This is particularly important for devices like home routers and gateways that operate continuously.
