FS, a trusted provider of ICT products and solutions, announced its latest 400G and 800G Ethernet switches designed for large AI clusters. Powered by Broadcom Tomahawk 5 chipset, these switches deliver up to 51.2 Tbps (102.4 Tbps Full Duplex) of switching capacity and support lossless RoCEv2 networking, making them ideal for AI, big data, high-performance computing (HPC), and distributed storage.

The hype around generative AI has significantly increased the size and bandwidth needs of AI/ML clusters. To handle large data volumes with low latency and high throughput, FS introduced 400G and 800G AI switches with RoCE protocol support, significantly reducing latency and improving data transmission efficiency.

The 400G switch features 128x QSFP112 ports, supporting up to 8K 400G ports in Layer 2 networking and scaling to 32K 400G ports in Layer 3 networking. The 800G model includes 64x OSFP ports, which support 2x 400GbE, 4x 200GbE or 8x 100GbE via breakout cables.

Key Features of FS 400G and 800G AI Switches:

  • Powered by Broadcom Tomahawk 5, delivering 51.2 Tbps (102.4 Tbps Full Duplex) of switching capacity.
  • Supports lossless RoCEv2 networking for low-latency, zero-packet-loss transmission.
  • High-density 100/200/400/800G port options in a compact 4 RU design.
  • DLB and GLB load balancing technologies improve bandwidth efficiency and reduce AI training time.
  • Adaptive routing minimizes congestion by selecting optimal paths based on real-time conditions.
  • Ensures reliability with 2+2 hot-swappable power supplies and 7+1 smart fans.

Daniel Xiang, CEO of FS stated, “With the launch of our 400G and 800G AI switches, enterprises can leverage greater network capacity and efficiency for their AI clusters. Based on Broadcom’s TH5 chips, these switches deliver high bandwidth and throughput needed for AI workloads. We are thrilled to introduce these switches to the market and look forward to empowering our customers as they expand their AI data centers.”
