Celestica Inc. (TSX: CLS) (NYSE: CLS), a leader in design,
manufacturing, hardware platform and supply chain solutions for the
world’s most innovative companies, today launched its DS5000
high-performance 800GbE switch, delivering speed and agility for
data center and enterprise-class access deployments. We are seeking
approval to release the DS5000 into the open source domain as the
first Open Compute Project (OCP)-inspired commercial 800G Ethernet
switch contribution to the OCP Networking group.
The DS5000 switch will be on display at this week’s 2023 OCP
Global Summit. It is the newest addition to Celestica’s Hardware
Platform Solutions (HPS) portfolio of cutting-edge storage,
compute, networking, and webscale solutions. It features 64 OSFP
800GbE ports, providing a 51.2 Tbps Ethernet-based fabric solution
within a 2U form factor to deliver next-generation,
high-performance networking.
Helping to power AI, ML and data center connectivity, the DS5000
is based on the Broadcom StrataXGS® Tomahawk® 5 Ethernet switch
chip, which provides the radix of 400GbE ports with an astounding
128 ports supported on a single chip, enabling flat, low latency
AI/ML clusters. In addition, the DS5000 enables next-gen power
efficiency, offering more than 75% power reduction from previous
generation 400G switches.
The DS5000 is optimized for:
- AI/ML and Big Data Analytics
- Hyperscale Data Centers and Cloud Computing
- High-Performance Computing (HPC)
- Network Backbone (800GbE Data Center Leaf / Spine)
"Celestica's innovations in engineering and manufacturing
continue to deliver networking, storage, and compute solutions to
meet our cloud and enterprise customers' accelerating needs for
infrastructure performance and scalability," said Gavin Cato, Head
and Chief Technology officer for Platform Solutions, Celestica.
"The DS5000, our flagship 51.2T 800G switching platform, is the
latest example of this commitment to address surging AI workloads
with a dense, low power capability."
The DS5000, along with Celestica’s entire portfolio of
networking switches, support SONiC (Software for Open Networking in
the Cloud). In addition, Celestica, a long-time member of the OCP
community, incorporated the Open Network Install Environment (ONIE)
installer into the DS5000 to support additional open and
third-party network operating systems.
