Broadcom BCM68252 is a highly integrated System-on-a-Chip (SoC) designed for Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON)
As fiber deployments (XGS-PON, 25G-PON) roll out globally, old processors cannot handle the 10 Gbps symmetric throughput. The BCM68252 provides the necessary headroom for routing, firewall, VPN (WireGuard/IPsec), and SQM (Smart Queue Management) at full 10G. bcm68252
BCM68660: A high-density OLT (Optical Line Terminal) SoC capable of supporting up to 32 GPON ports or 10G PON interfaces. BCM68660: A high-density OLT (Optical Line Terminal) SoC
The BCM68252 is a high-performance system-on-a-chip (SoC) from Broadcom Inc., a global leader in semiconductor infrastructure for wired and wireless communication. Although Broadcom often keeps detailed datasheets under non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) for enterprise clients, public technical briefings and industry teardowns confirm that the BCM68252 belongs to Broadcom’s strategic family of multi-core, packet-processing engines. 25G-PON) roll out globally
