Description
The Edgecore Wedge-16X-DC is a high-performance open networking switch designed for data center and cloud infrastructure environments. Featuring 16 high-speed QSFP+ 40GbE ports, this switch delivers exceptional throughput, scalability, and reliability for next-generation network architectures.
Built to meet open hardware standards, the Wedge-16X-DC integrates seamlessly into disaggregated network designs and supports software-defined networking (SDN) deployments. The DC-powered model ensures flexible power integration within telco or hyperscale environments requiring -48VDC input.
Designed for efficiency and uptime, it includes dual hot-swappable DC power supplies, redundant fans, and supports both optical and copper QSFP+ connections. Combined with Edgecore’s robust hardware engineering and open-source compatibility, the Wedge-16X-DC provides a reliable foundation for scalable, software-driven data centers.
