Features

RG-S6980-128DC – 128-Port 200GE Data Center Core Switch

The high-speed and high-density core switch provides 128 x 200GE QSFP56 ports housed in a 4-RU enclosure,

delivering scalable, high-performance, and high-bandwidth services for large-scale DCI networks.

Hardware-Level Redundancy, Ensuring Service Continuity and Preventing Network Downtime

Hot-Swappable Redundant Power Modules

The switch supports 2+2 power redundancy, enables failover in seconds, and ensures network connectivity during power replacement. This provides dual protection for links.

Hot-Swappable Redundant Fan Modules

The switch supports 7+1 fan redundancy with intelligent speed adjustment and efficient heat dissipation for building low-carbon data centers.

Lossless Ethernet, Ensuring Zero Packet Loss During RDMA E2E Communication

With the RDMA technology, data does not need to be handled by the CPU during device communication. This reduces the CPU load

and addresses network latency issues.

PFC and ECN are leveraged to implement intelligent data exchange and eliminate packet loss, ensuring lossless transmission of data.

Telemetry-based Network Monitoring and Automated O&M, Making Management Easy and Efficient

The switch enabled with telemetry provides a comprehensive view of data status and hierarchy.

The switch proactively collects and pushes information to provide sub-second-level network monitoring in real time,

making network management more efficient and accurate.
