Not long ago, a new N-series data center core switch was added to the FS, which has attracted the attention of many customers. The feedback on the products is also very positive. The performance requirements of the data center switches are more strict than the basic switches. Just tell everyone why the FS N-series switches are so popular.

First, the development of the data center

First of all, we should mention the term data center, which mainly provides lease services for enterprise users and office services. With the explosive development of the Internet, the data center also extends two directions, one is the enterprise data center. ( Communication and data services for a single company ), and the other is a hosted data center (hosting service providers provide services to multiple customers), the former one-to-one, the latter one-to-many.

Second, the data center requirements for the network

These hosting services are indispensable for the network. Without the network, the data center cannot collect relevant information. In addition, the data is ubiquitous. The operation of the data center requires high-bandwidth, high-density, high-management and reliable network support. Another important technology is virtualization.
Virtualization is the transformation of physical resources into logically manageable resources, fully realizing the automatic allocation of resources.
It is an open source technology. Virtualization technology subverts traditional perceptions of operating systems, provides opportunities to create future data center operating systems, and enables dynamic management of servers, storage devices, and network devices.
It is energy-saving technology. The reason for this is that this technology can help users to combine workloads of multiple applications, run multiple system environments on a single system, improve system availability, and migrate virtual environments in system self-tests.

Third, the data center requirements for the switch

Analysis of the above problems, we can conclude that the data center switch needs to meet the following requirements:
1. High bandwidth, high density, high reliability, and management;
2. Ability to support data center Ethernet transmission;
3. Ability to support virtual services;
4. Comprehensive business processing capabilities;
5, green energy-saving equipment
The FS N series switches are able to provide high-quality solutions for data center construction because they meet the above requirements.

The following table gives information on the FS N series related products.

From the parameters of these switches, we can see that the FS series of switches are compact in design and meet the needs of the high-density installation. The number of ports is large, and the networks of different speeds can be accessed. The capacity is large and suitable for the data center computer room. Construction.
The emphasis is on its virtuality and energy efficiency.
The FS N series switches support EVPN VXLAN for multi-tenant isolation to support virtual networks over 16M, virtual machine traffic towing, improve M security and traffic controllability, and realize network resource pooling for large Layer 2 networking. The virtual machine migrates services, improves network stability, implements link load balancing of data, and manages the entire logical unit.

Modular dual power supply and fan frame design, modular accessories support hot swap, for a network equipment, under the premise of comparable business capabilities, the smaller the power consumption represents the more advanced technology and advanced technology; Under the current technical conditions, if the three-layer full-service 10 Gigabit throughput power consumption is less than 25 W and the second-layer 10 Gigabit throughput power consumption is less than 13 W, it can basically be called a green product design.

With the convergence of the network, the requirements for the data center equipment will be higher and higher, and the FS not only improves the quality of the switch, but also the supporting products of the data center such as optical modules, jumpers, patch panels, etc.
