MIC-MRATE Use Case
Hyperscale Data Center Spine-Leaf Aggregation
In a hyperscale cloud data center upgrading to 400 Gbps leaf-spine architecture, the MIC-MRATE-12 x QSFP+/QSFP28 multirate port interface card (optics sold separately) delivers eight QSFP28 ports for 100 GbE uplinks and four QSFP+ ports for legacy 40 GbE links. This deployment simplifies cabling, consolidates 12 disparate links into a single card and boosts spine-leaf throughput to 4.8 Tbps. Benefit: 4× capacity growth, 50% fewer cables and future-proof migration to 400 GbE.
High-Performance Computing & AI Training Interconnect
An AI research lab building a GPU-based training cluster integrates the MIC-MRATE-12 multirate card to interconnect eight 100 GbE QSFP28 modules (optics sold separately) with four 40 GbE QSFP+ modules for orchestration traffic. The card’s low-latency switching and dynamic speed negotiation optimize data shuffle across hundreds of GPUs. Benefit: sub-microsecond latency, 2.4 Tbps aggregate throughput and a 30% reduction in job completion time.
Telecom Metro Edge Service Aggregation
A regional service provider deploys the MIC-MRATE-12 x QSFP+/QSFP28 interface card in its NFV-enabled metro edge routers to deliver mixed 10/25/40/100 GbE services. With eight QSFP28 ports and four QSFP+ ports (optics sold separately), the platform adapts to diverse customer demands and streamlines service turn-up. Benefit: 40% lower OPEX through unified hardware, on-demand speed flexibility and seamless upgrade path to 400 GbE.
