AS5812-54T
10GbE Data Center Switch
Bare-Metal Hardware
Product Overview
The Edgecore AS5812-54T switch meets the high-performance, availability, and network-scaling requirements of
enterprise and cloud data centers. The AS5812-54T provides full line-rate switching at Layer 2 or Layer 3 across
48 x 10GbE ports and 6 x 40GbE uplinks. The switch can be deployed either as a Top-of-Rack switch, or as part of
a 10GbE or 40GbE distributed spine, forming a non-blocking folded-CLOS data center fabric. The switch is rack
mountable in either a standard 19 inch rack, or with the Open Rack Switch Adapter in the 21 inch Open Rack.
The AS5812-54T hardware provides the high-availability features required for data center operation, including;
redundant, hot-swappable AC power input, 4+1 redundant fan modules, and port-to-power or power-to-port airflow
options. The AS5812-54T is an ideal Top-of-Rack switch for virtualized data centers, with its support of VXLAN and
NVGRE tunneling functions in hardware, leveraging existing Cat 5e/Cat 6/Cat 6A/Cat 7 cabling infrastructure that
saves further investment.
