Broadcom’s AVGO latest Tomahawk Ultra Ethernet switch is a key catalyst for its AI revenues. As the demand for AI and high-performance computing (HPC) infrastructure continues to soar, the company believes that growing adoption of this cutting-edge chip will significantly boost its AI revenues,

Broadcom's chip unit unveiled a new networking processor that aims to speed artificial intelligence data crunching, which requires stringing together hundreds of chips that work together.

Broadcom's headline silicon for SUE is the newly announced Tomahawk Ultra, a 51.2 Tbps switch ASIC that's been specifically tuned to compete with Nvidia's InfiniBand in traditional supercomputers and HPC clusters, as well as NVLink in rack-scale-style deployments akin to Nvidia's GB200 NVL72 or AMD's Helios.
