Celestica crams 64 1.6 Tbps ports into a single switch
"Celestica's latest switches incorporate 64 OSFP224 ports, each consisting of eight 200 Gbps links aggregated into a single port, allowing for significant bandwidth capabilities."
"The introduction of the DS6000 switches aligns with the industry's push for faster networking solutions, as seen with Nvidia's ConnectX-9 superNICs and AMD's MI455X GPUs."
"Broadcom's advancements in optical digital signal processing are paving the way for future 400 Gbps SerDes, potentially leading to 3.2 Tbps optical transceivers."
Celestica has launched the DS6000 family of switches, featuring 64 ports of 1.6 Tbps each, designed for high-performance computing tasks like AI training. The switches come in a 19-inch 3U air-cooled chassis and a 21-inch OCP-compliant design that utilizes both air and liquid cooling. They are powered by Broadcom's 102.4 Tbps Tomahawk 6 ASIC, which supports 200 Gbps connectivity. The demand for faster networking is driven by companies like Nvidia and AMD, who are also developing high-speed connectivity solutions for AI applications.
