The new Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6900-Q32 platform brings higher performance and scalability to the Enterprise network with innovative Intelligent Fabric technology.
As part of Alcatel-Lucent Enterprises out-of-the-box solution, Intelligent Fabric technology brings network agility while drastically reducing the overhead to deploy and maintain the network.

The following new capabilities are provided by the OmniSwitch 6900-Q32 platform:
* High port density (32-port 40GbE or up to 128-ports of 10GbE), double the capacity and half the latency of existing OmniSwitch 6900 family members.
* Versatile system with flexible deployment options, ideal for right-sizing the converged campus network or providing a scalable, cost-effective Data Centre Switching solution.
* Simplified deployment in minutes, rather than days or weeks. Innovative Intelligent Fabric technology automates deployment and adds/move/changes of the network and access switches and other devices connecting to it, significantly reducing the OPEX burden.
* Scalability with minimal investment and overhead – virtual chassis provides single management of up to six units and Intelligent Fabric technology automates addition of new units into the virtual chassis.
* Mix and Match other OmniSwitch 6900 platforms to provide the industry’s most flexible Pod and Mesh design for Data Centre networks.
* Ease management burden with automation of VXLAN Gateway and overlay support for application control over both virtual and physical network.
* Integrated Virtual Machine Mobility capabilities delivers visibility and QoS across VXLAN and physical network – and automates network reconfiguration due to adds/moves/changes of applications.
* Full Data Centre features set.
* Future-proof standard-based technology with full SDN programmability for easy integration into workflow automation systems and provides choice for best of breed technologies.
* Limited lifetime warranty for lower support costs and peace of mind.
