Overview
Given the inevitable bandwidth upgrade associated with continuous growing service development, the data center infrastructure is gradually moving from 25G and 100G networks to 200G and 400G interconnection phase. Although 25G and 100G network still represent a significant share in data center until now, servers with 200G NICs are emerging to provide higher throughput and larger storage solutions for new types of networking applications, such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML). New and emerging applications pushed the data center towards higher reliable and scalable infrastructure deployment. The 200G and 400G network is up and coming and will be stronger than ever in the future.
The 200G Leaf Switch for Next-Generation Data Center
BMS T8024-IXH is a high-performance 1RU leaf switch, supporting up to 8Tbps with 24 200G QSFP56 and 8 400G QSFP56-DD ports. T8024-IXH is designed to address next-generation data center and cloud computing environments. With 50G PAM4 technology, T8024-IXH supports high-density interconnection for massive scale-out data centers and simplifies the spine-leaf networking tiers. Additionally, it enables a larger capacity and extends the feature set while maintaining low power consumption and latency.
T8024-IXH is a compiler programmable switch with extensive instrumentation functions. It includes a programmable packet processor which can be programmed to process new types of protocols and allowing future proofing. Additionally, the scalable packet processor and the large packet buffer allow T8024-IXH to learn and analyze a large amount of data from the internet. T8024-IXH enables loss forwarding and dynamic load balancing which enhances network performance and improves traffic between servers. The instrumentation features include in-band telemetry and large-scale forwarding database extends network visibility and real-time network function for multiple application support.
DOM FPGA
The T8024-IXH includes digital optics monitoring (DOM) acceleration function. The DOM FPGA handles the communication between CPU and optical modules. It supports both DOM data collection and real-time I2C access. DOM FPGA periodically polls the DOM information through I2C instead of directly connect to the optical modules. It offloads CPU's workload when the CPU only needs to read the information from FPGA.
High Availability
The BMS T8024-IXH provides high-performance solutions for next-generation data center 200G and 400G connectivity. The key features from both hardware and software perspectives include:
• 24 200G ports and 8 400G ports in a 1RU switch
• 16T Leaf switch throughput
• Complier-programmable packet processing
• DOM FPGA for accelerating DOM transaction time
• Advanced traffic management and high-performance packet processing
• Instrumentation set for full network visibility
• Redundant PSUs and Fans
