High-Speed Switch IC
Ethernet switch silicon for data center and AI cluster networks. It moves traffic between the servers in a rack and between racks across the data center, at high bandwidth and low latency, so the network keeps pace with the accelerators it connects.
Overview
The network is part of the computer.
When a workload spans many servers, every one of them waits on the network. A fast switch keeps the cluster from stalling on it.
From top of rack to spine
One device serves both roles: connecting the servers within a rack, or joining racks into a data center fabric.
Low latency under load
Built to forward at full rate and absorb bursts of traffic, so the network does not become the bottleneck for the compute behind it.
Built for always-on networks
Reliability features in the silicon keep traffic flowing through link faults and software maintenance.
Open network software
Works with open network operating systems through the industry-standard switch abstraction interface, and with the automation tools your team already uses.
