This deployment delivers non-blocking, low-latency connectivity and seamless east-west traffic scaling. Outcome: 4× higher throughput density, 35% reduction in oversubscription, and future-proof expansion for next-generation cloud workloads.
Enterprise Campus Core Switch for Fiber Backbone Consolidation
A global enterprise deploys the JH180A-5930 24P SFP+ AND 2P QSFP+ MOD PL-NC as its campus core, aggregating fiber links from seven buildings over CWDM/DWDM SFP+ modules and 40 Gb/s QSFP+ trunks. This centralized switch streamlines operations with hot-swappable optics and precise pluggable diagnostics. Outcome: 50% fewer network segments, 40% lower power per port, and guaranteed 10 GbE service-level agreements across the corporate campus.
High-Performance Computing Cluster Interconnect
In an HPC research lab, the JH180A-5930 24P SFP+ AND 2P QSFP+ MOD PL-NC links 24 compute nodes at 10 Gb/s and provides dual 40 Gb/s QSFP+ fabric uplinks to the parallel file system. This optimized modular switch reduces jitter and maximizes MPI traffic efficiency. Outcome: 20% faster simulation runtimes, deterministic latency under 2 µs, and simplified cable management for large-scale scientific modeling.
