CloudEngine 8800 Series Data Center Switches

A series of high port density switches, CloudEngine 8800 brings a combination of both high performance and low latency to cloud-oriented data center networks and high-end campus networks alike. Additionally, the series supports an extensive range of data center features, Software-Defined Networking (SDN) capabilities, and high performance stacking technologies.

With 10 GE, 25 GE, 40 GE, 100 GE, 200 GE, and 400 GE ports, as well as flexible plug-in cards, CloudEngine 8800 is well suited for both the core and aggregation layers. The series is also compatible with CloudEngine 16800, 12800, 6800, and 5800 series switches, helping enterprises build networks that are scalable, simplified, open — and secure.

Scalability

Flexible, high density access, with aggregation capabilities and up to 32 x 100 GE, 64 x 40 GE, 128 x 25 GE, or 128 x 10 GE ports in a 2U chassis.
Virtualization

Virtual Extensible Local Area Network (VXLAN) turns CloudEngine 8800 into a high-performance hardware gateway on a virtualized overlay network, supporting up to 16 million tenants.
Intelligence

Significantly simplify operations with intelligent Operations and Maintenance (O&M), proactive reporting of Google Remote Procedure Call (gRPC) high-speed data, proactive detection of network-wide paths, and real-time monitoring of network health status.
