QFX10002 fixed-configuration switches are very dense, highly scalable platforms designed for today’s most demanding data center environments. They’re loaded with power and functionality, all housed in a compact, 2 U form factor.
The switches feature a deep buffer with Hybrid Memory Cube (HMC) to absorb network traffic spikes and reduce application latency. They also support 10GbE, 40GbE, and 100GbE in the same platform, giving you the flexibility to transition to greater network capacity as your traffic demands increase.
Enabling hardware and software to work together as an intelligent, unified network, the QFX10000 line of Switches form the underlying data center infrastructure for Contrail Networking, which automates networking policy and performs life-cycle management for data center fabrics. Contrail Networking abstracts network connectivity using virtual overlays across legacy and cloud-native workloads running on servers attached to QFX Series Switches.
