And this one is a coper passive cable, imagine the long fiber optics for larger installations, where you have ~15W power consumption per transceiver! Just on transceivers its a fricking power party!
I have a couple 400G Active ones that will connect spine to leafs, and I haven't yet tested how hot they become, but the normal passive 100Gb ones already are impossible to pick up directly out from the port after a few hours of operation. So I am imagining these active 400 ones will be interesting.
Having lots of fun, but this week was quite exhausting. :P
I've talked a bit with a NTT guy and all the shit they are doing as a large carrier is insane. I assume this is in the enterprise side of things rather than carrier?
It's insane to know there's still companies running on 10/100 meg switches while others are out here with 800G beasts and probably need to look into upgrading in the near future.
Got this bad boy in my room right now.
Nowhere near your beast, but 6x100G, 48x10G ports and actual routing capabilities is nice to have.
That's a really nice one. Management on tha back?
Yup, serial and management on the back.

Canโt publish some yet, but here is just a little cable ๐
Itโs insane to know that they have 800G cables. Or even the 1.6TB cables they have for sale on fs.com, just insanity

Now weekend time!

Yep, this is the new Supercomputers I am deploying.
