The 5G technology and network virtualization demand the need for increased capacity, low latency and scalable data-center infrastructure. The data center switches targeted for such applications should have high port density with flexible port configuration, high-availability and non-blocking data processing speed.
C-DOT’s SAKSHAM-4000 is a 5U Chassis based, 25.6Tbps, Modular Data Centre Switch cum Router system, designed to meet the requirements of Carrier Grade Leaf and Spine switches in Data-Center for 5G networks.
The architecture of SAKSHAM-4000 is modular, supports different types of Line cards with 400G ports, 100G ports and 1G/10G/25G ports. All the Line cards are hot-swappable and upto 8 Line Cards can be equipped in the system. Flexibility of 50Gspeed ports are supported through breakout cables. SAKSHAM-4000 also incorporates data plane security with inline MACSec option supported on all Line interfaces.
The system has redundant switch/ controller cards, redundant power supplies and fans thereby ensuring a non-blocking forwarding. SAKSHAM-4000 supports CDOT CROS Network OS which is high-performance, modular with remote upgrade features, inbuilt security and DevOps like management interfaces. All, the hardware modules are hot-swappable and field replaceable. The system supports option for both AC or DC power source.
