The Edgecore AS7716-32X switch are Top-of-Rack (TOR) or spine switches for high-performance data centers. In a compact 1RU form factor, the switches provide line-rate L2 and L3 switching across the 32 x QSFP28 ports, supporting up to 32 x 40/100 GbE, 64 x 50 GbE, or 128 x 10/25 GbE connections.
The AS7716-32X can be deployed as a TOR switch supporting 10/25/50 GbE to servers with 40/50/100 GbE uplinks, or as a spine switch supporting 40/50/100 GbE spine interconnects. These open network switches are loaded with the Open Network Install Environment (ONIE) which supports the installation of compatible Network Operating System software, including the open source options Open Network Linux and OpenSwitch, plus commercial NOS offerings.
