Unleashing computing power with new Ethernet.
CloudEngine 16800 Series Data Center Switches
Brand-new modular switches featuring an innovative backplane-free Clos architecture, offering a variety of card options to support enterprises in transitioning to 400GE.
Large Capacity
173/1548 Tbit/s switching capacity, supporting smooth evolution to 400 GE in anticipation of future traffic demand.
Intelligent Engine
A unique iLossless algorithm learns and trains network-wide traffic in real time, implementing network adaptation and self-optimization. Zero packet loss boosts throughput to 100%.
Intelligent O&M
An intelligent Operations and Maintenance (O&M) platform, supported by telemetry-based data collection in milliseconds, enables fault location within 3 minutes and prediction of 90% of risks.
