CTX-4000 Modular Telco Data Centre Switch
Products / Switching & Routing / CTX-4000 Modular Telco Data Centre Switch
The 5G technology and network virtualization demand the need for increased capacity, low latency and scalable data-center infrastructure. The data center switches targeted for such applications should have high port density with flexible port configuration, high-availability and non-blocking data processing speed. C-DOT’s CTX-4000 is a 5U Chassis based, 25.6Tbps, Modular Data Centre Switch system, designed to meet the requirements of Carrier Grade Leaf and Spine switches in Data-Center for 5G networks. The architecture of CTX-4000 is modular, supports different types of Line cards with 400G ports, 100G ports and 1G/10G ports. All the Line cards are hot-swappable and upto 8 Line Cards can be equipped in the system. Flexibility of 50G/25G speed ports are supported through breakout cables. CTX-4000 also incorporates data plane security with inline MACSec option supported on all Line interfaces. The system has redundant switch/ controller cards, redundant power supplies and fans thereby ensuring a non-blocking forwarding. CTX-4000 supports CDOT CROS Network OS which is high-performance, modular with remote upgrade features, inbuilt security and DevOps like management interfaces. All, the hardware modules are hot-swappable and field replaceable. The system supports option for both AC or DC power source.

- Maximum Network Interfaces supported: 32 x 400G , 126 x 100G, 126 x 40G, 192 x 25G (Through Breakout), 192 x 1G/10G.
- Line Cards for different interface types, upto 8 Line Cards supported per system with inline MACSec option, per slot capacity-1.6Tbps full-duplex
- Resiliency: Redundant Switch/Controller module, 5 PSUs with 3+2 redundancy, Fans with 4 + 1 redundancy per subsystem -2 subsystems in the chassis, hot-swappable and field replaceable modules
- Supports scalable and reliable hardware-based timing that meets the Telco Timing requirements, including SyncE for frequency and the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) for frequency and phase synchronization.
- CDOT CROS Network OS powering CTX-4000 gives rich set of automation and programmability features like YANG, NETCONF, XML, REST APIs, to simplify complex configurations and reduce the potential for configuration errors. They also save time by automating operational and configuration tasks along with real-time monitoring & troubleshooting.
