Extreme Networks BDX8-Bun20TR-10G96X

Data centers today demand highly virtualized, converged and scalable infrastructure. Multi-tenancy and cloud computing are driving the need for simplicity and cost efficiency from the network fabric, along with a need for expandability, high performance and service up time. Extreme Networks Open Fabric solution, led by its flagship BlackDiamond X8 platform, provides seamless any-to-any connectivity through a simple, scalable, and centrally orchestrated network.

Designed for the cloud-scale requirements of Data Centers, High Performance Computing (HPC), and Internet Exchange Points (IXP), the BlackDiamond X8 provides a low-latency, high performance switch fabric with high-density wire-speed 10 GbE, 40 GbE and 100 GbE connectivity for edge-to-core applications, all in a compact footprint using only one-third of a standard rack. As a 'fabric-in-a-box' solution, the BlackDiamond X8 eliminates expensive multi-tier architectures and the challenges of inter-device connectivity, uplink bandwidth, and latency. The BlackDiamond X8 also leverages a low-power design ideal for green operations and high degrees of energy efficiency, resulting in lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
