A New Class of Data Infrastructure

The Cisco SFS 7000D InfiniBand Server Switch provides a new class of data center infrastructure that interconnects discreet server resources using a high-performance 20-Gbps, low-latency fabric.

The Cisco SFS 7000D provides:

• 24 dual-speed InfiniBand 4X ports that can operate in either 20-Gbps double data rate (DDR)) or 10-Gbps single data rate (SDR) mode for server and interswitch connectivity
• Nonblocking 480-Gbps cross-sectional bandwidth with less than 200 nanoseconds of port-to-port latency
• Supports DDR-to-SDR switching capability for investment protection and higher server densities
• Command-line interface (CLI), Web, and Java-based systems management options
• Powered ports to enable flexible copper and optical interface configurations

The Cisco SFS 7000D offers the reliability, security, and control required for high-performance and utility computing. When combined with Cisco SFS 3000 Series Multifabric Server Switches, the Cisco SFS 7000D facilitates shared pools of I/O resources that can be mapped together by Cisco VFrame Server Fabric Virtualization Software to deliver virtual "computing services."
