High Density Switch Dilemma
Most enterprise networks and hyper scale data centers prefer to use high density switches such as 40G, 100G are common and 400G is in the near future. However, one of the dilemmas of high density switches is not all devices support high density ports.
There is a need to breakout 40G ports into 4x10G ports and 100G ports into 4x25G ports. Our universal port replicator addresses this issue by breaking out any QSFP port into 4 LC duplex ports. This makes end devices to easily connect to these kinds of switches.
Port Service Simplified
Consider yourself a data center technician who needs to service a port that is part of a 40G breakout. You must first locate the switch, then the 40G switch port, and then the individual 10G port. Because the port has been separated, there are no physical indicators for each individual port on the original switch. As a result, the technician’s work becomes difficult. This is where tri-LEDs come into play. To service a port, a technician can now just follow the “lights” on the port.

Universal Breakout Features
Breakout Switches
Breakout switches are a game changer in networking technology, particularly in addressing the persistent challenges posed by high-density switch ports. These innovative switches provide a practical solution by breaking down the traditionally inflexible 40G and 100G ports into more versatile and manageable configurations, such as four 10G ports and four 25G ports. This transformation not only enhances network flexibility but also optimizes resource utilization and scalability, making it a vital tool for modern data centers and enterprise networks.
Breakout Visibility
In network management and infrastructure, ensuring efficient and streamlined operations is paramount. Breakout visibility, a crucial feature in advanced network solutions, takes center stage in facilitating this by providing on-site technicians with the guidance they need to effectively service ports. This is achieved through the incorporation of tri-color LEDs on each LC duplex port and MPO connectors, which not only illuminate the path to the specific ports but also offer a quick and intuitive means of identifying and managing these ports. The coordinated control of these LEDs can be managed through various channels, including the originating switch, REST API, or a web interface accessible on the Universal Patching Rack (UPR).
Server-switch Connection
The establishment of seamless server-switch connections is key for efficient network infrastructure, and the concept of breaking down high-density switches into low-density configurations plays a pivotal role in making these connections not only straightforward but also highly efficient. This approach offers a host of advantages in enhancing the interactions between end-devices, such as servers, and the network switches, ensuring a hassle-free and optimized networking experience through better resource optimization and enhanced accessibility.
