Santa Clara, California, March 31, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Pluribus Networks, the leader in SDN automation and disaggregated networking, today announced that three new Freedom 9000 Series switches, based on silicon from the Broadcom StrataXGS\u00ae Trident 3 switch series, are now ready to order. The new switches, the 9432-C, 9476-V and 9460-X, are high-performance disaggregated switches designed for enterprise, communication service provider and cloud service provider data center networks supporting private and public cloud infrastructure.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Pluribus\u2019 new Freedom Series switches are designed to support modern scale-out network architectures that can grow incrementally to nearly unlimited port counts while providing the well-documented cost efficiencies of disaggregated networking. The portfolio of new switches delivers increased capacity and supports 10GbE, 25GbE and 100GbE interfaces with Layer 2, Layer 3 and VXLAN wirespeed forwarding, granular telemetry and rich cloud services with up to 6.4 Tbps (full duplex) of wire speed performance to meet the increasing demands of private and managed cloud workloads.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

In conjunction with the Open Compute Project (OCP), Pluribus is also announcing the listing of Freedom Series switches on the OCP Marketplace<\/a> increasing access to a broader community of OCP members and making it even easier to do business with Pluribus. All Freedom Series switches have either already been recognized as OCP Accepted\u2122 or are being evaluated for the program.<\/p>\n

\u201cPluribus continues to provide the most powerful and flexible disaggregated hardware and software solutions for enterprises, communication service providers and cloud service providers deploying scale-out data center network architectures,\u201d said Kumar Srikantan, CEO of Pluribus Networks. \u201cThe release of new Freedom Series switches based on the Broadcom Trident 3 series, as well as our participation in the OCP Marketplace, is further evidence of our company\u2019s dedication to, and expertise in, high-performance disaggregated networking.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the Pluribus Freedom Series of open switches can support third-party ONIE compatible network operating systems, they are predominantly deployed using Pluribus\u2019 Linux-based Netvisor\u00ae ONE operating system<\/u><\/a> and the Adaptive Cloud Fabric\u2122<\/u><\/a> controllerless SDN software, the combination of which provides the industry\u2019s most scalable, secure, resilient and automated fabric-networking solution. The Adaptive Cloud Fabric radically automates single site, multi-site and edge data center cloud networks delivering new levels of agility while reducing the operational complexity of programming the network up to 95% over protocol-based alternatives. In contrast to traditional SDN solutions, which require multiple servers and controller licenses at every data center location, the \u201ccontrollerless\u201d Adaptive Cloud Fabric is both cost-effective and simple to deploy and operate. Leveraging BGP EVPN border gateway functionality, the Adaptive Cloud Fabric can easily interoperate with third-party cloud network fabrics to extend cloud services.<\/p>\n

The new Freedom Series switches continue Pluribus\u2019 ongoing commitment to high-performance disaggregated networking via the market-leading Broadcom StrataXGS\u00ae Trident 3 series, which supports fully programmable packet processing, rich network services and telemetry at line rate across all ports, while achieving significant cost and power efficiency advantages. All three new platforms can be used either in the leaf or the spine location, simplifying network design and lowering sparing costs:<\/p>\n
