400G
Hyperscale datacenter networks are under continuous pressure to provide massive scale and capacity. 400G Ethernet is a key technology building block to evolve the infrastructure to support the proliferation of mobile and cloud-based applications. Edgecore contributed to the Open Compute Project (OCP) of the design of a 400 Gigabit Ethernet data center switch, the industry’s first 400G open design, deliver high performance and density, as well as low latency and exceptional power efficiency in a several form factors.
