Celestica introduces liquid-cooled switch for AI data centers
Celestica has introduced a new data center switch called the DS6005.
The Toronto-based company says it is designed for networks that support artificial intelligence systems.
The switch combines optical components with its main switching chip, rather than using traditional plug-in optical modules.
Celestica says this design can increase bandwidth density, reduce latency and improve power efficiency.
The system is designed for OCP ORv3 racks and can provide up to 102.4 terabits per second of switching capacity.
It is also designed to use liquid cooling in a compact form.
The announcement describes the product’s intended capabilities, but does not say when it will be available.
Celestica introduced the DS6005, a liquid-cooled data center switch designed for AI networks.
The system uses co-packaged optics and is built on Broadcom’s Tomahawk 6 – Davisson switch chip.
It is designed to provide up to 102.4 terabits per second of switching capacity in a 1.5OU form factor.
Celestica says the design aims to increase bandwidth density and improve power efficiency in OCP ORv3 deployments.
