FOUNDRY FOR INTERNET EXCHANGE SOLUTIONS

Internet Exchanges (IX) demand high-performance Layer 2 topologies with high density Gigabit and 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports. These cross-roads of the Internet connect high-performance routers from many Service Providers in peering relationships without requiring a full mesh of router ports.

The BigIron RX Series excels in this environment. Offering high density 1-Gigabit and 10-Gigabit Ethernet together with the resiliency features of the chassis make the BigIron RX Series an extremely cost effective and robust solution.

FOUNDRY FOR HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPUTING SOLUTIONS

High-performance computing has entered the mainstream marketplace with Ethernet switching as the technology of choice. Ultra-low latency and high-density Ethernet switching are required for successful deployment.

The BigIron RX Series chassis are ideal for this environment. They offer low latency through the switch with unparalleled densities of 10/100/1000 Ethernet, fiber Gigabit Ethernet and

10-Gigabit Ethernet in compact size chassis—up to 1,536 ports of Gigabit Ethernet or 128 ports of 10-Gigabit Ethernet in a single chassis. The high-performance architecture offers up to 3.2 Tbps of data switching capacity to meet the needs of the most demanding HPC environment. The combination of performance, density and reliability makes the BigIron RX Series an excellent choice for Enterprise HPC environments.
