Technology and Products

BLADE offers a comprehensive line of top-of-rack and bladed 1-10 Gigabit Ethernet switches for high-performance computing (HPC), multimedia (VOD, IPTV, VoIP), online gaming, financial analysis, security, cloud networking, Web 2.0 and other I/O-intensive applications.

BLADE’s top-of-rack and blade server switches exemplify a set of rules for the data center known as Rackonomics – an economical approach for provisioning essential server, storage and networking infrastructure that empowers enterprise data centers to control costs and contain sprawl while realizing massive scale-out economies. BLADE’s RackSwitch top-of-rack data center switch products leverage the company’s blade server networking heritage and unique focus on Rackonomics to perform with up to 12.4× less latency, 73 percent less energy and 6.5× better price/performance than comparable top-of-rack data center switches.

BLADE’s Cloud Ready Network Architecture and the BLADE products that define it equip networks operated by enterprises and cloud providers with five essential elements – high-bandwidth/low-latency switching, convergence to Ethernet, agile networking for virtual workloads, scalable management and advanced energy efficiency.

Famous quotes containing the words technology and/or products:

    The real accomplishment of modern science and technology consists in taking ordinary men, informing them narrowly and deeply and then, through appropriate organization, arranging to have their knowledge combined with that of other specialized but equally ordinary men. This dispenses with the need for genius. The resulting performance, though less inspiring, is far more predictable.
    John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)

    We are the products of editing, rather than of authorship.
    George Wald (b. 1906)
