Aria Switch
1.6T

The foundation of the modern AI Factory. The Aria Switch 1.6T delivers 102.4 Tbps of switching capacity with flexible breakout from 200GbE to 1.6TbE, bridging 800G deployments to terabit-scale connectivity.

Aria Switch 1.6T

Overview

Large-scale AI training and inference demand a new class of networking. The Aria Switch 1.6T delivers 64 x 1.6TbE ports across both air-cooled and liquid-cooled configurations, interconnecting 100,000+ XPUs in a two-tier, non-blocking architecture that reduces the total cost of ownership and shortens job completion time.

Highlights

Terabit-Scale Connectivity

64 x 1.6TbE ports with 102.4 Tbps of switching capacity and 200G SerDes, providing a seamless upgrade path from existing 400GbE and 800GbE deployments without sacrificing density or performance.

Zero-Loss Performance

A fully shared packet buffer absorbs bursty AI traffic without packet loss or excessive tail latency, keeping GPU utilization high and training timelines predictable.

Built for What's Next

Full support for RoCE and emerging Ultra Ethernet Consortium (UEC) standards, ensuring compatibility with the full spectrum of accelerator hardware, storage backends, and workload schedulers as the ecosystem evolves.

Trusted and Proven

ONIE-loaded and powered by Aria Enterprise SONiC. Replaces rigid, high-overhead licensing with a lean, performant stack that accelerates time to production.
