RackSwitch G8100
10G Low Latency Switch
Product Brief
Ay Certification
The BLADE Network Technologies’ RackSwitch™ G8100 is a 10GbE switch specifically designed for the data center,
providing a Virtual, Cooler and Easier network solution.
providing a Virtual, Cooler and Easier network solution.
The RackSwitch G8100 is “Virtual”- for the first time providing rack-level virtualization of networking interfaces for a
rack full of server and storage systems – decoupling the scaling of networking and computing capacity via on-switch
SmartConnect™ software. Patent-pending VMready™ extensions enable movement of virtual machines—providing
matching movement of VLAN assignments, ACLs, and other networking and security settings. Using VMready, the
trusted zone for the virtual machine is never compromised.

The RackSwitch G8100 is “Cooler”- implementing server-like directional cooling to maximize datacenter layout and
provisioning. Its superior airflow design complements the hot-aisle and cold-aisle data center cooling model.

The low latency offered by the RackSwitch G8100 makes it ideal for latency sensitive applications such as clusters
and financial applications. And the G8100 supports the newest protocols – including Converged Enhanced Ethernet
(CEE) for support of Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE).

The RackSwitch G8100 offers 24 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports in a 1 RU footprint. Designed with top performance in
mind, the RackSwitch G8100 provides line-rate, high-bandwidth switching, filtering, and traffic queuing without
delaying data, and large data-center grade buffers to keep traffic moving. Redundant power and fans along with
numerous high availability features ensure that the RackSwitch G8100 is always available for business-sensitive
traffic.

Product Benefits
• 24 10GbE ports: Combination of CX-4 and SFP+
• Optimal for High-Performance Computing or other
applications requiring the highest bandwidth and
lowest latency
lowest latency
• All ports non-blocking 10GbE with deterministic
latency of fewer than 300 nanoseconds.
• Unlike most rack equipment that cools from side
to side, the RackSwitch G8100 has two airflow
options (front-to-rear or rear-to-front) which allow
for flexible mounting of the switch in a server rack
or datacom rack.
