AS7326-56X

25GBE DATA CENTER SWITCH BARE-METAL HARDWARE

The Edgecore AS7326-56X switch is a Top-of-Rack (TOR) switch for high-performance data centers. In a compact 1RU form factor, the switch provides line-rate L2 and L3 switching across the 48 x SFP28 + 8 x QSFP28 ports, and each QSFP28 port can be configured as 2 x 50 GbE, 4 x 25 GbE, 1 x 40 GbE, or 4 x 10 GbE by using DAC breakout cables.

Overview

The Edgecore AS7326-56X switch is a Top-of-Rack (TOR) switch for high-performance data centers. In a compact 1RU form factor, the switch provides line-rate L2 and L3 switching across the 48 x SFP28 + 8 x QSFP28 ports, and each QSFP28 port can be configured as 2 x 50 GbE, 4 x 25 GbE, 1 x 40 GbE, or 4 x 10 GbE by using DAC breakout cables. The AS7326-56X can be deployed as a TOR switch supporting 10/25 GbE to servers with 40/50/100 GbE uplinks. This open network switch is loaded with the Open Network Install Environment (ONIE) which supports the installation of compatible Network Operating System (NOS) software, including the open source options Open Network Linux plus commercial NOS offerings.
