400G Data Center Interconnect (DCI)

400G Data Center Interconnect (DCI) — provides fast transfer of large volumes of information of data processing between centers, optimizes work of cloud services and controls network traffic in real time.

2017: Announcement

On September 20, 2017 the Huawei company presented solution 400G of Data Center Interconnect (DCI) designed to fix the problems connected with insufficient capacity, at the same time reducing energy consumption in data centers.

The solution Huawei 400G DCI works at fundamentals of technology of high-speed connection and the system of intellectual global control on the basis of Agile Controller. It ensures effective functioning of cloud services of the enterprise and supports evolution of network transmission capacity. Development also allows to display services in online, at the same time controlling and adjusting network traffic in real time.

Clients, the implemented this solution of Huawei, have an opportunity to globally adjust and control networks, to optimize use of bandwidth (to 50%) and to reduce operating expenses.

Product 400G DCI is focused on the high density of installation of devices and energy efficiency. The ultraintegrated line cards of router 4T provide 50 percent economy of energy, and a heat exchange regulatory issue in high-performance panels and energy consumptions devices are solved due to advanced technologies of dispersion of heat, including heat-insulating panels from carbon nanotubes.

Considering mass transition of corporate services to a cloud, creation of ultrabroadband, intelligent and energy efficient networks DCI will become a necessary condition of synergy of a cloud and network in the future. Huawei 400G DCI allows the enterprises and service providers to be ready to achievement of commercial success in the future, helping to optimize services and quicker to pass into a cloud — Ma E (Ma Ye), the vice president of Huawei Router & Carrier Ethernet Product Line said.
