OmniSwitch 6900 core and data centre network switches
This top-of-rack LAN and data centre switch is compact and high-density, with 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GigE), 25 GigE, 40 GigE and 100 GigE options.
Designed for the most demanding software-defined operations, the Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6900 offers high performance and extremely low latency. Its virtual chassis capabilities with 1 rack unit design keeps your footprint small – and your management simple, because you can run multiple switches as one.
These secure, compact, high density 10, 25, 40 and 100 GigE switches are also designed to be flexible. You can position them as leaf or spine top-of-rack switches in your data centre, or as core and aggregation devices in your campus network.
