1. Ultra-High-Speed 40G & 100G Data Center Connectivity The XikeStor SKS8300-6Q2C is a flagship Layer 3 managed core switch featuring 6× 40G QSFP+ ports and 2× 100G QSFP28 ports. Delivering a massive 880Gbps switching capacity and a 654.72Mpps forwarding rate, it provides ultra-fast, non-blocking data transmission for enterprise cores, high-performance computing (HPC), and AI infrastructure. 2. Flexible Port Breakout & Massive Scalability Maximize your network density with advanced port splitting capabilities. The 100G QSFP28 ports can be breakout into 4× 25G or 2× 50G, while the 40G QSFP+ ports can be split into 4× 10G via breakout cables (sold separately). This flexibility allows for seamless integration into diverse 10G/25G/40G/100G mixed-speed environments. 3. Advanced Layer 3 Routing & Data Center Protocols Engineered for complex networking, it supports a full suite of dynamic routing protocols including OSPF, BGP, RIP, and IS-IS. Beyond standard L3 features, it supports advanced data center technologies like VXLAN, MPLS, and IPv4/IPv6 Dual Stack, along with ERPS (G.8032) for carrier-grade sub-50ms ring network redundancy. 4. Comprehensive Security & Enterprise-Class Management Equipped with a robust security engine supporting ACL filtering, AAA (RADIUS/TACACS+), and 6KV surge protection. Administrators can manage the network through an out-of-band MGMT port, Console port, or standard CLI (SSH/Telnet), Web GUI, and SNMP v1/v2c/v3. A built-in USB port ensures easy system upgrades and configuration backups. 5. Data Center Ready Design & Reliable Hardware Housed in a professional 1U rackmount metal enclosure with a dual-fan cooling system for 24/7 stable operation. Featuring a 128K MAC address table, this switch is purpose-built for high-density environments, including data center leaf-spine architectures, enterprise cores, and edge computing nodes. 6. Professional Setup & Management Access Initial configuration can be performed via the Console port or the dedicated MGMT port. Access the intuitive Web GUI or powerful CLI to monitor real-time performance and configure advanced L3/VXLAN settings. Important: To ensure continuous operation, always click the “Save” button after configuration to retain all settings through power cycles or firmware updates.
