As a Spine-layer switch, it utilizes its 128 x 400GbE ports to downlink to up to 128 Leaf-layer switches, ensuring ultra-high bandwidth and low-latency connectivity across the data center. Guaranteed Compatibility: Seamless integration ensures 100% compatibility and superior. The NC8400-4TH switch supports a maximum of 128x 40G/100G, or 64x 40/100G with 16x 400G high-density ports through flexible line cards combinations of NC8400-32C and NC8400-16CD. It's optimal for spine deployments in large data centers, HPC, service providers and cloud providers. The switch employs. CloudEngine Data Center Switches — Ethernet switches widely used in diverse applications and in different network sizes, in both data centers and high-end campus networks — feature network scaling, automation, programmability, and real-time visibility. It defines a specific level of defense against dust and water, based on the international standard IEC 60529. It also supports port breakout for up to 256 x 200GbE or 512 x 100GbE connections.
