Broadcom on Monday topped off its latest portfolio of networking products for AI data centers with the release of its Jericho 4 ethernet fabric router. Broadcom stock rose on Monday.
The Jericho 4 is a purpose-built platform for the next generation of distributed artificial intelligence infrastructure, the company said in a news release. It is designed to interconnect over 1 million processors across multiple data centers.
The Jericho 4 chip joins the Tomahawk 6 and Tomahawk Ultra switch chips in Broadcom's networking product lineup.
Jericho 4 breaks through traditional scaling limits with improved bandwidth, security and performance, Broadcom said.
"As AI models grow in size and complexity, the infrastructure requirements exceed the power and physical limits of a single data center," Broadcom said. "Distributing XPUs (diverse processor types) across multiple facilities — each provisioned with tens to hundreds of megawatts of power — requires a new class of router, optimized for very high-bandwidth, secure and lossless transport across regional distances."
On the stock market today, Broadcom stock rose 3.2% to close at 297.72.
Broadcom stock is on three IBD lists: Big Cap 20, Leaderboard and Tech Leaders.
