Product Overview
The Edgecore AS7512-32X switch is a Top-of-Rack (TOR) or spine switch for high-performance data centers. In a compact 1RU
form factor, the switch provides line-rate L2 and L3 switching across to 32 x QSFP28 ports, supporting up to 32 x 40/100 GbE,
64 x 50 GbE, or 128 x 10/25 GbE connections. The AS7512-32X can be deployed as a TOR switch supporting 10/25/50 GbE to
servers with 40/50/100 GbE uplinks, or as a spine switch supporting 40/50/100 GbE spine interconnects. The AS7512-32X is a
bare-metal switch loaded with the Open Network Install Environment (ONIE) which supports the installation of compatible Network
Operating System (NOS) offerings.
