OVERVIEW
The UfiSpace S9701-82DC is a high density 25G disaggregated open router that evolves the network and enables next generation of 5G services and applications. The S9701-82DC can be deployed as a standalone device or within a core switching cluster as a "line card" element within the distributed disaggregated chassis, also known as a DDBR (Distributed Disaggregated Backbone Router).
As a standalone router, the S9701-82DC provides the service ports needed to enable multiple edge transport service aggregation over a scalable next generation service provider network. It is also suitable for central office data centers and general network aggregation.
When coupled with UfiSpace's fabric switch (S9705-48D), the S9701-82DC becomes a building block for the distributed disaggregated chassis (DDC). The DDC allows service providers to implement a pay-as-you-grow model when scaling core and edge network capacities.
The S9701-82DC disaggregated open router uses the Broadcom J2C silicon, which provides 4GB packet buffer, 1000Mpps packet throughput and 2.4Tbs switching capacity. It includes an optional knowledge-based processor (or TCAM) to perform up to 16 parallel searches to reach decision speeds of multiple billion decisions per second, which makes it ideal for provider edge applications. In addition, the S9701-82DC comes with integrated timing interfaces (GNSS, 10MHz, 1PPS, and ToD) with support for IEEE1588v2 and SyncE timing synchronization with Class C accuracy for modern network applications.
What is a Distributed Disaggregated Chassis (DDC) Routing System?
The UfiSpace DDC routing system opens up the traditional chassis routing system by "Distributing" the line and fabric card components into easy to manage, standalone "Disaggregated" white boxes, each equipped with their own hot swappable fans and power supplies for easy maintenance and servicing. These line and fabric cards are connected together using 400G cables to for a single "Chassis," capable of horizontal scaling from 2.8Tbps to 691Tbps. No longer will forklifts be needed for installing the chassis because the DDC is so compact; just 2RU in height and can fit onto a standard 19" data center rack. UfiSpace's DDC is designed for a routing system that is easier to install, manage, and maintain, while meeting all the technical requirements of a carrier-grade core and edge routing system.
