SLX 9150
SLX 9150 switches are purpose-built high density 1/10/25/40/100GbE fixed
form factor switches designed for the needs of Enterprise data centers and
service providers. They deliver scalable L2 and L3 resources with advanced
features for network monitoring and network virtualization oering scalable
and deterministic network performance while simplifying deployment and
reducing cost.
SLX 9150 switches enable organizations to design open networks that
accommodate a variety of applications and east-west trac patterns.
With its high-density, scale-out architecture and leading power eciency
and airflow choices, the SLX 9150 delivers a cost-eective solution that
optimizes power, cooling, and data center space. With a rich set of Layer
2 and Layer 3 features and advanced visibility and automation capabilities,
the SLX 9150 is built to address dynamic growth in highly virtualized
environments, distributed applications, and digital transformation.
The SLX 9150 is a fixed 1/10/25/40/100GbE top-of-rack leaf switch with
32MB of packet buer and an overall throughput of 2 Tbps in and out
nonblocking switching capacity. It oers forty-eight 1/10/25 GbE SFP28
ports and 8 100/40 GbE QSFP28 ports.SFP and QSFP ports oer a choice
of speeds — including 100, 40, 25, 10, or 1 GbE — along with a wide choice
of transceivers and cables. Ports can be mixed, oering flexible design
options to cost- eectively support demanding data center and service
provider environments.
