描述

The S9100-32X is specifically designed for the unique application in high-performance data center environments. Taking full advantage of non-blocking switching architecture, the S9100-32X significantly reduces head-of-line blocking (HOL blocking) to provide line-rate L2 and L3 forwarding capacity for concurrent support of all ports at full capacity. For data centers looking to acquire future-ready solutions, simplifying the migration to 100 Gbps in the data core is achieved in a denser footprint while maintaining necessary constraints in a rack space. The agility to design optimized data center networks is further enhanced with architectural features including redundant hot-swappable power supplies and fans for flexibility, efficiency and availability. 

The S9100-32X supports Open Network Install Environment (ONIE), providing an environment for automated operating system provisioning. In combination with ONIE, the S9100-32X redefines the key component in disaggregated network architecture, providing unprecedented network layer agility. With ONIE, application demands-solutions can take the form of the right software for the switching fabric. The S9100-32X enables the creation of thriving ecosystems of both network and software alternatives defining the deployment of future-ready agility.
