Product Overview The Edge-Core AS5610-52X-C hardware switch meets the high-performance, availability, and network-scaling requirements of enterprise and cloud data centers. The AS5610-52X-C provides full line-rate switching at Layer 2 or Layer 3 across 48 x 10 GbE ports and 4 x 40 GbE uplinks. The switch can be deployed either as a Top-of-Rack switch, or as part of a 10 GbE or 40 GbE distributed spine, forming a non-blocking folded CLOS data center fabric. The AS5610-52X hardware is designed for data centers, with a high port density of 64 x 10 GbE in a 1 RU enclosure; redundant, hot-swappable, load-sharing AC or -48VDC PSUs, or 12VDC power input; fan tray with n+1 redundant fans; and port-to-power or power-to-port airflow options. The AS5610-52X-C comes with Cumulus Linux — The leading network OS for Data Center switching systems.
Cumulus Linux
Cumulus Linux is a Linux operating system that runs on top of industry standard networking hardware.
