SwitchBADGE
Automotive Ethernet Switch Evaluation DeviceOverview
The SwitchBADGE is a development and demonstration platform utilizing Marvell’s 88Q5030 Ethernet Switch. It can be connected to up to 3x 100BASE-T1 devices, including Intrepid’s EtherBADGE or can be daisychained with other SwitchBADGE to experiment with larger networks.
Experimentation with AVB networks is also possible using the embedded AVB stack. This stack and the switch can be configured with software provided by Marvell Semiconductor.
Key Features
- USB Type C PC Interface enumerates a USB3 Gigabit NIC
- Push-in mating connector (Phoenix Contact 1778858)
- Embedded AVB Stack
- Low cost mini-USB cables for connection to Intrepid’s EtherBADGE or other 100BASE-T1 devices.

Bus/Ring Topology using Daisy Chain
Create experiment with alternatives to the switch topology by using multiple switchBADGE and EtherBADGE. Here you could create a bus or ring topology by including a switch in every node. Optionally include a RAD-Galaxy multiport tap to monitor the performance of the network.
