THE DATA CENTER HAS EVOLVED – BUT NOT THE NETWORK


TRADITIONAL DATA CENTER NETWORK CHALLENGES

PerformanceSpanning Tree disables up to

50% of bandwidth, tiered networks not optimized for E-W traffic

ScaleRequires additional layers and

adds cost & complexity

Management SimplificationEvery device managed

separately, multiple networks

Traditional Networks: Inefficient, Complex, Costly to Manage

QFABRIC EVOLVING THE SINGLE SWITCH MODEL

Chassis Switch

• Separate the I/O modules from the fabric and replace copper traces with fiber links.

• For redundancy addmultiple Interconnect devices.

• Federated Control and Intelligent Nodes

• One switch
