Can 25G Ethernet Help Your Organization?
Are you running tier 1 or 2 applications on
virtual machines? How has VM density
changed in the last three years?
• 25G delivers better bottom line benefits and helps to
lower overhead and increase application
performance through better efficiencies than 10G.
Are you embracing unified communications (IP
telephone) and collaboration applications?
• If so, higher bandwidth is required to ensure quality
audio and to optimize collaboration tools
Do you have tight budgets that require IT to do
more with less?
• Many SMBs are seeing the value of implementing
25G as a way to get more value and life out of
networking equipment.
Do you have compliance requirements for Data
Retention? (Medical, Legal, Finance, TeleCo)
• Regulations apply to a wide range of companies and there
are growing requirements for access of the data at
desktops. Moving these large file will require more
bandwidth.
Video streaming, production and post-production
moving to 4K or greater
• Uncompressed 4K video needs 12 to 26 Gb/s of
bandwidth per stream, 10G can’t keep pace.
Are you implementing Flash and NVMe storage?
• High-speed connection to solid-state drives are being
pushed to their limit and NVMe will offer 5X the
performance. If you’re spending money on the high cost
of solid-state drives, you want to receive the maximum
benefits.
