Technical Specifications Extreme Networks Data Sheet BlackDiamond® X8 Highlights Overview • High density 10GbE and 40GbE switch for data center consolidation Designed for large, virtualized data centers and clouds, the Extreme Networks® • 768 ports of 10GbE per switch, 2304 ports of 10GbE per rack BlackDiamond X8 was built with green operations in mind, resulting in low per port power • 192 ports of 40GbE per switch, 576 ports of 40GbE per rack of Ownership. • 2.3 µs latency BlackDiamond X8 switch provides high density 10GbE and 40GbE. Furthermore, the consumption, which when combined with high density, can result in a lower Total Cost With massive scalability, the BlackDiamond X8 offers 2.56Tbps per slot capacity and more than 20Tbps total switching capacity with 768 ports of line rate 10GbE or 192 ports of line • Midplane-less architecture with 20+ Tbps rate 40GbE in a single chassis. All of this is offered in a relatively small footprint of only 14.5 • Powered by time-tested, modular ExtremeXOS® operating system with resilient and intelligent virtualization features and hardware switching of up to 128,000 virtual machines “fabric in a box” which can eliminate expensive multiple-box and multi-tier solutions—along • Converged open fabric for reliable IP based storage services and transit for FCoE traffic manner through XNV™ (ExtremeXOS® Network Virtualization). Automated configuration • Low power consumption of 5.6 Watts per 10GbE or 22.5 Watts per 40GbE port for low Total Cost of Ownership Key Features/Benefits RU, or one-third of a standard rack. The BlackDiamond X8 provides a standards-based with their inter-device connectivity, uplink bandwidth and latency challenges. The BlackDiamond X8 has the ability to automatically track and report 128,000 virtual machines (VMs) and automatically migrates Virtual Port Profiles (VPPs) in a touch-less and provisioning further contribute to simplicity of deployment and operation. “Cloud-Scale” Switching Designed from the ground up with the density, performance and capacity requirements of “cloud scale” data centers in mind, the BlackDiamond X8 provides 20.48Tbps total switching capacity, supporting up to 2,304 10GbE ports or up to 576 40GbE ports at wire-speed in a single seven-foot rack helping increase utilization of limited and expensive rack space. The BlackDiamond X8 fabric design uses an orthogonal direct mating system between interface and switch fabric modules, eliminating the performance bottleneck of backplane or midplane design. The BlackDiamond X8 can offer up to 2.56Tbps capacity per interface slot, allowing for future expansion to even higher port densities. Make Your Network Mobile
