6740 (Figure 1) offers
48 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) SFP+ ports
and four 40 GbE QSFP+ ports. Each 40 GbE
port can be broken out into four independent
10 GbE SFP+ ports, providing an additional
16 10 GbE SFP+ ports. In addition, the
switch features low power consumption,
consuming 2 watts per 10 GbE port.

Data centers continue to evolve, creating a
need for an infrastructure that can support
growth in Virtual Machines (VMs), distributed
applications, and data, as well as the
transition to cloud-based computing—without
compromising performance. However,
traditional data centers typically use inflexible,
three-tier network designs that cannot
efficiently manage east-west traffic or deliver
the bandwidth needed to support virtualization
and new service delivery. In addition, with
the movement toward cloud computing, the
importance of deploying a flexible and
responsive network infrastructure only grows.

To support the new direction of IT service
delivery, data center operators need
networks that are high performance,
operationally efficient, automated, and
elastic. The ideal network will be easy to
manage and scale to meet demand as well
as adapt to future requirements.
