FS-N8560-32C, 32-Port Ethernet L3 Data Center Switch, 32 x 100Gb QSFP28, Support MLAG/Stacking, Broadcom Chip, Front-to-Back Airflow

The FS-N8560-32C provides line-rate L3 switching across the 32x QSFP28 ports, and each QSFP28 port can be configured as 40/100GbE, or as 4x 10/25GbE or 2x 50GbE via breakout cables.

The compact 1U switch can be deployed as a top-of-rack (ToR) switch supporting 10/25GbE to servers with 40/50/100GbE, or as a spine switch supporting 40/50/100GbE spine interconnects.

FS-N8560-32C supports PFC, DCBX, ECN and RoCEv2 to deliver low-latency, zero packet loss, non-blocking lossless Ethernet, VXLAN, EVPN for virtual network expansion, and supports features like GR, BFD mechanisms to ensure normal operation when the network bears abundant services and heavy traffic.
