Data center switch MES5400-24

Mass production

Key features

High performance (up to 2.16 Тbps)
Non-blocking architecture
L3 switches
Stacking up to 8 devices
Power supply redundancy
Front-to-Back cooling
Dual ventilation system

MES5310-48, MES5400-24 and MES5400-48 switches are high performance devices with 40GBASE-R and 100GBASE-R interfaces that can be used as aggregation switches in carrier networks and as Top-of-Rack or End-of-Row switches for datacenters.

The switch ports support speed of 1 Gbps (SFP), 10 Gbps (SFP+),40 Gbps (QSFP+), and 100 Gbps (QSFP28). HG interface split mode supports speed of 1 Gbps, 10 Gbps, and 25 Gbps. Split mode allows to split up to 6 HG interfaces for a total of 24 TWE interfaces.

The non-blocking architecture guarantees lossless packet forwarding at wire speed with minimum and predictable delays for all types of traffic.

The front-to-back cooling provides effective cooldown in modern data centers.

The redundant and hot-swappable fans and AC/DC power supplies along with advanced hardware monitoring functions provide high reliability and uninterrupted services.The devices support EVPN/VXLAN technology to create networks with simple, high-performance and scalable data center architecture.
