The all-new chassis switch features an innovative backplane-less CLOS switching architecture and a wide range of board options to support enterprises' evolution towards 400GE.

1. Extra-large capacity
Supports dynamic load balancing for cell switching and smooth evolution to 400GE to meet future surges in digital traffic demands.
2. Zero packet loss
The proprietary iLossless algorithm learns and trains in real time using network traffic, enabling network adaptation and self-optimization. It achieves zero packet loss and E2Eμs-level latency, maximizing throughput.
3. Intelligent Operation and Maintenance
Millisecond-level telemetry data acquisition lays the data foundation for the intelligent O&M platform. 1-3-5 intelligent O&M enables proactive prediction of 90% of faults.
