MWC19 Shanghai | Data center 400G solution, AI empowers the future

In recent years, with the rapid growth of mobile Internet, OTT video, VR and other business applications, the backbone network of operators has already entered the 400G era. With the gradual popularization of big data, cloud computing and artificial intelligence applications, operator data centers need higher bandwidth and lower cost per G bandwidth. Operators need data center network solutions with lower energy consumption, more intelligence and easier operation and maintenance.

In the past five years, the Internet backbone bandwidth has maintained a rapid growth, with an average growth rate of 24% for global IP traffic. The growth rate of China Telecom's backbone traffic in the past three years is still as high as 42%, and the growth rate of China Mobile is over 30%. Currently, 100G commercial deployment has blossomed all over the world, and the industry's attention has begun to shift to 400G and other super-100G technologies. At the same time, how to solve the problem of high-speed migration of massive data between data centers, eliminate bandwidth bottlenecks between data centers, and significantly improve bandwidth utilization between data centers, the market demand for high-density 400G products is becoming more urgent.

Ruijie Networks released the 400G data center solution in March this year to meet the rapid growth of user data center bandwidth and scale to meet the needs of modern data-driven workloads and cloud environments.

The core of the 400G data center solution is the Newton 18000-CX series switches, a new generation of high-performance core switches for data centers created by Ruijie Networks. This product is a new upgrade of the Newton 18000-X series products, with a total bandwidth of 691.2T and support for P-level bandwidth upgrades. While providing efficient and stable switching services, it can achieve sustainable and smooth network upgrades in the next 10 years.

Designed for more demanding environments

The RG-N18000-CX series switches adopt advanced hardware architecture design and are one of the most widely configured core switches in the industry. It adopts advanced CLOS direct orthogonal switching architecture, and the whole machine supports 9 mesh board design. A single slot supports up to 43.2T forwarding capacity, and a single chassis currently supports 576 400GE and 2304 100GE full-line speed interfaces. The straight-through full front-to-back air duct heat dissipation design meets the heat dissipation requirements of the data center; the partitioned straight air duct + business branch air duct design brings higher heat dissipation efficiency, and the fans achieve the same heat dissipation effect at a lower speed and fewer in number, while reducing the sound of normal operation of the equipment. The RG-N18000-CX series 36X400G phy-free design provides streamlined high reliability. At the same time, the power consumption per GB of the whole machine is reduced by 47% compared with the 100G era.

Designed for more flexible and agile business support

In addition to the impressive hardware configuration, the RG-N18000-CX series switches integrate intelligent edge processing technology and programmable sub-second telemetry technology, providing AI brains for 5G and data center scenarios. With intelligent edge processing technology and built-in intelligence, users can directly view abnormal values ​​of historical indicators and future trends of related indicators on the device; online programmable telemetry objects, on-path detection INT technology, fully transparent forwarding analysis inside the device, and chip-level measurement of the residence of each message and each flow inside the device to support intelligent analysis of full-volume messages and full-path big data. Help customers simplify operation and maintenance management.

The RG-N18000-CX series switches feature high performance, high intelligence, and high reliability. They can be flexibly deployed in carrier data centers and carrier metropolitan area network scenarios based on business needs, enabling the construction of 400G ultra-wide, intelligent, green and energy-saving data center networks.

From June 26 to 28, the Asian technology industry event "MWC19 Shanghai" will be held at the Shanghai New International Expo Center. Ruijie will showcase the RG-N18018-CX series of next-generation data center core switches at the "MWC19 Shanghai". Welcome to visit Ruijie Networks booth (N4.F40). At the same time, Ruijie Networks will exclusively host the "Carrier Data Center Network Technology Summit" to share and discuss in-depth with many industry experts and scholars on the technology development of carrier data centers.
