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:
“If we had a reliable way to label our toys good and bad, it would be easy to regulate technology wisely. But we can rarely see far enough ahead to know which road leads to damnation. Whoever concerns himself with big technology, either to push it forward or to stop it, is gambling in human lives.”
—Freeman Dyson (b. 1923)
“Good wine needs no bush,
And perhaps products that people really want need no
hard-sell or soft-sell TV push.
Why not?
Look at pot.”
—Ogden Nash (1902–1971)
