The ESP-9110 Enterprise-Class switch represents the entry level of Advantech’s white box switch portfolio. It integrates Layer 2 switching software optimized to meet the connectivity and performance requirements of cloud data centers, with 16 gigabit Ethernet combo ports, 8 SFP ports and 4 SFP ports offering greater installation flexibility. The ESP-9110 meets small data center requirements, delivering wire speed across all ports at up to 128 Gbps for Layer 2 traffic forwarding. In addition, the fanless convection design provides a higher degree of reliability, making it suitable for data centers operating at temperatures up to 45°C, while two 110~220 VAC input, built-in, redundant power modules ensure vital network capabilities for higher levels of availability. The ESP-9110 meets data center requirements for top-of-rack deployment; the switch can also be deployed to form a spine network, providing a high performance and cost-effective data center fabric that supports Software Defined Networking (SDN). The ESP-9110, when delivered with Advantech’s SDN software framework supports multiple protocols on the southbound interface, including Broadcom OF-DPA, OpenFlow and Indigo, allowing the ESP-9110 to be deployed as a physical switch under full SDN control.
