QuantaMesh Ethernet Switches with QNOS provide comprehensive Layer 2 and Layer 3 features

QCT Network Operating System (QNOS) is the modern software platform for data centers and cloud networks which is based on Broadcom's ICOS platform for tradition L2/L3 features as well as software-defined network (SDN) applications. Inherited from ICOS, QNOS is a proven protocol stack solution that can run on several control plane processors including PowerPC, x86, and ARM with robust operating performance and flexible deployment.  For the fundamentals of modern data center networks such as network automation, virtualization, high availability and data center oriented, QNOS provides a comprehensive feature set to cover all types of applications. 

• In-Service Software Upgrade (ISSU)
• VXLAN, Bgp-evpn, and RIOT
• Multi-Chassis Link Aggregation (MLAG)
• OSPF, BGP4 with ECMP
• Network Automation
• RoCEv1/v2, DCBX, and FIP SNP

The Next Wave 25G Ethernet Switch for Data Center and Cloud

Data center networks face the changes with hardware and meet the requirements of the software it hosts. Quanta Cloud Technology provides a series of Ethernet Switches, the QCT QuantaMesh switch product line, that addresses these changes and provides the advanced features that meet the demands for the contemporary data center applications. The QCT QuantaMesh product line provides the connections from 1G to 100Gbps speeds on its Ethernet Switches. To meet the requirements of high- performance, high- availability, fast scale out, low- latency performance, and continuous serviceability for data center applications. With the advanced feature of QNOS (Quanta Network OS), the QCT QuantaMesh Ethernet Switch product line  is the best choice for Data Center applications.

QuantaMesh T4048-IX8D is a high-performance, high port density, and low- latency layer 3 managed switches for Data Center Leaf Switch or ToR (Top of Rack) applications. T4048-IX8D supports 48 SFP28 and 8 QSFP28 ports in a 1-Rack-Unit (1RU) switch that supports 2.0 Terabits per second (Tbps) of bandwidth. The 48-port downlink ports on the T4048-IX8D can be configured to work as either 1/10/25GbE ports, offering deployment flexibility and investment protection. The uplink can support up to eight 100GbE or eight 40GbE ports, or a combination of 10, 25, 40, 50 and 100GbE connectivity, offering flexible migration options. By levering merchant silicon chip, T4048-IX8D is fully compliant with IEEE 802.3by and is a high- performance and high-density Ethernet switch with advanced features such as a smart table, dynamic load balancing, and VXLAN/RIOT support. T4048-IX8D also supports larger table sizes, improves the performance for larger packet buffers, and reduces the latency. With the support of QNOS (Quanta Network OS), T4048-IX8D is the best choice for Data Center applications.
