QCT A Powerful Top-of-Rack Switch for Datacenters and Cloud Computing

The QuantaMesh T3048-LY2R is a high performance and low latency layer 2/3/4 Ethernet switch with 48 1/10GbE SFP+ and 4 40GbE QSFP+ ports in a compact rack unit size. The 4 40GbE ports provide 160Gbps to aggregate bandwidth up to the core switch. Each 40 Gigabit Ethernet port can be independently configured as 40GbE or 4 x 10GbE for total 64 ports of 10GbE.

Simplicity

The QuantaMesh T3048-LY2R can be managed through an industry standard command-line interface (CLI) which reduces training and operating costs. The QuantaMesh T3048-LY2R also supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) both from standard MIB and private MIB for easy configuration, monitoring, and remote management for the network administrator. The Auto-Installation feature implemented in the QuantaMesh T3048-LY2R helps centralized management to simplify deployment of a truly plug-and-play experience. With the evolution from IPv4 to IPv6, the QuantaMesh T3048-LY2R is a IPv6 integrated management device.

High Availability

The QuantaMesh T3048-LY2R is designed for high availability from both hardware and software perspective. The key features include:

• 1+1 hot-swappable power supplies
• N+1 hot-swappable fans
• Spanning Tree with Guarding Features
• Up to 64 gropus of LACP with per group 32 member ports
• Multi-chassis Link Aggregation (MLAG)
• Up to 32 paths ECMP routing for load balancing and redundancy
• Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP)

High-Performance L2/L3 access deployments

With the compact 1U form factor, high density 48 1/10G SFP+ and 4 40G QSFP+ ports in the front panel, front to back or back to front airflow design, the QuantaMesh T3048-LY2R is ideal for top-of-rack deployments in high-performance, highly demanding datacenters. The 1.28 terabits per second switching capacity and 952Mpps forwarding rate with low power consumption make the QuantaMesh T3048-LY2R a powerful solution to aggregate high-performance servers in the datacenter.

Software Defined Network (SDN)

SDN has emerged as a new approach to support open, vendor-agnostic, and programmable networks. T3048-LY2R is equipped with OpenFlow v1.3 features to fulfill the needs of modern data center applications.
