Designed for the cloud-scale requirements of Data Centers, High Performance Computing (HPC), and Internet Exchange Points (IXPs), the BlackDiamond X8 provides a low-latency, high performance switch fabric with high-density wire-speed 10GbE, 40GbE and 100GbE connectivity for edge-to-core applications, all in a compact footprint using only one-third of a standard rack. As a 'fabric-in-a-box' solution, the BlackDiamond X8 eliminates expensive multi-tier architectures and the challenges of inter-device connectivity, uplink bandwidth, and latency. The BlackDiamond X8 also leverages a low-power design ideal for green operations and high degrees of energy efficiency, resulting in lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
