Product overview

INTELBRAS SDC 5850 high-density intelligent series switches is developed for data centers and cloud
computing networks. It provides powerful hardware forwarding capacity and abundant data center features. It
provides up to 32*100G ports and 2 out-of-band management ports (one fiber port and one copper port). The
100G ports are 100G/40G autosensing and each can be split into four interfaces. This enables the switch to
provide up to 128*25G or 10G ports. The switch supports modular power supplies and fan trays. By using
different fan trays, the switch can provide field-changeable airflows.

The switch is an ideal product for high-density 100GE or 25GE accessing and aggregation at data centers and
cloud computing networks. It can also operate as a TOR access switch on an overlay or integrated network.

The switch SDC 5850 series contains the following model:

Features and benefits

High port density and powerful forwarding capacity

• The switch offers high-density 100G/40G/25G/10G ports and a forwarding capacity as high as 6.4Tbps, which
enables the switch to provide high-density server access in high-end data centers without oversubscriptions.

IRF2 (Second Generation Intelligent Resilience Architecture)

• Facing the application requirements of the unified switching architecture of the data center, the series switches
support the IRF2 technology, which virtualizes multiple devices into one logical.

• The equipment has strong advantages in scalability, reliability, distributed and availability.

• IRF2 not only can achieve a long-distance intelligent elastic architecture within a rack, across racks, and even across
regions.

Abundant Data Center Features

The switch supports abundant data center features, including:

• INTELBRAS SDC 5850 series switches supports VXLAN (Virtual Extensible LAN), which provides two major benefits,
higher scalability of Layer 2 segmentation and better utilization of available network paths.

• INTELBRAS SDC 5850 series switches supports MP-BGP EVPN (Multiprotocol Border Gateway Protocol Ethernet
Virtual Private Network) which can run as VXLAN control plane to simplify VXLAN configuration, eliminate traffic
flooding and reduce full mesh requirements between VTEPs via the introduction of BGP RR.

• INTELBRAS SDC 5850 series switches support Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), which permits storage, data, and
computing services to be transmitted on one network, reducing the costs of network construction and
maintenance.

Intelbras SDC 5850
Series Data Center Switches Datasheet

• INTELBRAS SDC 5850 series switches support Priority-based Flow Control (PFC), Enhanced Transmission Selection
(ETS) and Data Center Bridging eXchange (DCBX). These features ensure low latency and zero packet loss for FC
storage, RDMA applications and high-speed computing services.

INTELBRAS Distributed Resilient Network Interconnection (DRNI)

• INTELBRAS SDC 5850 series switches support DRNI(M-LAG), which enables links of multiple switches to aggregate
into one to implement device-level link backup. DRNI is applicable to servers dual-homed to a pair of access devices
for node redundancy.

• Streamlined topology: DRNI simplifies the network topology and spanning tree configuration by virtualizing two
physical devices into one logical device.

• Independent upgrading: The DR member devices can be upgraded independently one by one to minimize the
impact on traffic forwarding.

• High availability: The DR system uses a keepalive link to detect multi-active collision to ensure that only one
member device forwards traffic after a DR system splits.

Powerful Visibility

With the rapid development of data center, the scale of the data center expands rapidly; reliability, operation and
maintenance become the bottleneck of data center for further expansion. INTELBRAS SDC 5850 series switches conform to
the trend of automated data operation and maintenance, and support visualization of data center.

• INT (Inband-Telemetry) is a network monitoring technology used to collect data from the device. Compared with
the traditional network monitoring technology featuring one query, one reporting, INT requires only one- time
configuration for continuous data reporting, thereby reducing the request processing load of the device. INT can
collect timestamp information, device ID, port information, and buffer information in real time. INT can be
implemented in IP, EVPN, and VXLAN networks.

• Provides a variety of traffic monitoring and analytic tools, including sFlow, NetStream, SPAN/RSPAN/ERSPAN
mirroring, and port mirroring to help customers perform precise traffic analysis and gain visibility into network
application traffic. With these tools, customers can collect network traffic data to evaluate network health status,
create traffic analysis reports, perform traffic engineering, and optimize resource allocation.

• Supports realtime monitoring of buffer and port queues, allowing for visible and dynamic network optimization.

• Supports PTP (Precision Time Protocol) to achieve highly precise clock synchronization.

RoCE (RDMA over Converged Ethernet)

• Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) directly transmits the user application data to the storage space of the
servers, and uses the network to fast transmit the data from the local system to the storage of the remote system.
RDMA eliminates multiple data copying and context switching operations during the transmission process, and
reduces the CPU load.

• RoCE supports RDMA on standard Ethernet infrastructures. INTELBRAS SDC 5850 switch support RoCE and can be
used to build a lossless Ethernet network to ensure zero packet loss.

• RoCE include the following key features，include PFC(Priority based Flow Control), ECN(Explicit Congestion
Notification), DCBX(Data Center Bridging Capability Exchange Protocol), ETS(Enhanced Transmission Selection).

Flexible programmability

• The switch uses industry-leading programmable switching chips that allow users to define the forwarding logic as
needed.

• Users can develop new features that meet the evolving trend of their networks through simple software updates.

Powerful SDN capacity

• INTELBRAS SDC 5850 series switches adopt the next-generation chip with more flexible Openflow FlowTable, more
resources and accurate ACL matching, which greatly improves the software-defined network (SDN) capabilities and
meet the demand of data center SDN network.

• INTELBRAS SDC 5850 series switches can interconnect with INC - SeerEngine-DC Controller through standard
protocols such as OVSDB, Netconf and SNMP to implement network automatic deployment and configuration.

Comprehensive security control policies

• INTELBRAS SDC 5850 series switch supports AAA, RADIUS and user account based authentication, IP, MAC, VLAN,
port- based user identification, dynamic and static binding; when working with the INTELBRAS iMC platform, it can
conduct real time management, instant diagnosis and crackdown on illicit network behavior.

• INTELBRAS SDC 5850 series switch supports enhanced ACL control logic, which enables an enormous amount of
inbound and outbound ACL, and delegate VLAN based ACL. This simplifies user deployment process and avoids ACL
resource wastage. SDC 5850 series switch can also take advantage of Unicast Reverse Path Forwarding (Unicast
RFP). When the device receives a packet, it will perform the reverse check to verify the source address from which
the packets are supposedly originated, and will drop the packet if such path doesn’t exist. This can effectively
prevent the source address spoofing in the network.

Multiple reliability protection

• The SDC 5850 series switch provides multiple reliability protection at both switch and link levels. With over current,
overvoltage, and overheat protection, all models have a redundant pluggable power module, which enables flexible
configuration of AC or DC power modules based on actual needs. The entire switch supports fault detection and
alarm for power supply and fan, allowing fan speed to change to suit different ambient temperatures.

• The switch supports diverse link redundancy technologies such as INTELBRAS proprietary RRPP, VRRPE, and Smart
Link. These technologies ensure quick network convergence even when large amount of traffic of multiple services
runs on the network.

Flexible choice of airflow

• To cope with data center cooling aisle design, the INTELBRAS SDC 5850 series switch comes with flexible airflow
design, which features bi-cooling aisles in the front and back. Users may also choose the direction of airflow (from
front to back or vice versa) by selecting a different fan tray.

Excellent manageability

The switch improves system management through the following ways:

• Provides multiple management interfaces, including the serial console port, mini USB console port, USB port, two
out-of-band management ports, and two SFP ports. The SFP ports can be used as in-band management port

through which encapsulated sampling packets are sent to the controller or other management devices for deep
analysis.

• Supports multiple access methods, including SNMPv1/v2c/v3, Telnet, SSH 2.0, SSL, and FTP.

• Supports standard NETCONF APIs that allow users to configure and manage the switch, enhancing the compatibility
with third-party applications.
