Distributed Disaggregated Chassis
            As service provider networks rapidly transform, Edgecore is now developing distributed disaggregated chassis systems based on
            Broadcom’s Jericho2 and Ramon switch ASICs - the Core Routers Series (COR series), that provide the required deep buffers, port
            density, and horizontal scale-out flexibility.


            These new devices conform to Open Compute Project (OCP) specifications for a distributed disaggregated chassis, where a number of
            switch systems connected through fabric links operate as if they were a single logical router with 100G external I/O links. The 400G
            fabric links employ a cell-based protocol with fixed-size packets distributed across multiple fabric interfaces forming a redundant,
            non-blocking leaf-spine topology. With extensive scalability, the distributed disaggregated chassis offers service providers the ideal
            solution as they strive to keep ahead of the growing bandwidth demands in their aggregation networks. And provide service providers
            the flexibility to expand their network as required.
