Andrew Zonenberg is working on an open-source high-speed Ethernet switch, making progress on the project that he started in 2012.
The design includes a variety of parts, with the use of XCKU5P FPGAs influencing the project's direction as he acquired them inexpensively.
Andrew Zonenberg, known for glscopeclient (now ngscopeclient), is an experienced RTL engineer, focusing on hardware description languages like Verilog and VHDL.
Open-source hardware for high-speed Ethernet switches can be costly due to the expensive components involved, but advancements in this area are ongoing.
