Cisco 8100 switches Fixed platform optimized to reduce space and power. Bandwidth: 6.4 Tbps to 51.2 Tbps Height: 1 RU and 2 RU

The Cisco 8000 Series combines the revolutionary Cisco Silicon One^™ and Cisco IOS^® XR or the SONiC open-source network operating system to deliver a breakthrough in high-performance routers.

High-performance networking systems have historically been divided into routing or switching classes, with distinct hardware and software. But as the necessity for reliable networks proliferates, it is imperative that traditional networks shift to a new architecture to address the need for exponential growth in bandwidth, ubiquitous connectivity, security, better quality of service, low latency coupled with high reliability, availability, and serviceability of the infrastructure. The Cisco^® 8000 Series Router portfolio completes this journey with the Cisco 8100 Series Switches.
