Celestica Launches its Next Generation 800G Switch, Powering Artificial Intelligence and Advancing Data Center Connectivity for the Future

TORONTO, Oct. 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Celestica Inc. (TSX: CLS) (NYSE: CLS), a leader in design, manufacturing, hardware platform and supply chain solutions for the world’s most innovative companies, today launched its DS5000 high-performance 800GbE switch, delivering speed and agility for data center and enterprise-class access deployments. We are seeking approval to release the DS5000 into the open source domain as the first Open Compute Project (OCP)-inspired commercial 800G Ethernet switch contribution to the OCP Networking group.  

The DS5000 switch will be on display at this week’s 2023 OCP Global Summit. It is the newest addition to Celestica’s Hardware Platform Solutions (HPS) portfolio of cutting-edge storage, compute, networking, and webscale solutions. It features 64 OSFP 800GbE ports, providing a 51.2 Tbps Ethernet-based fabric solution within a 2U form factor to deliver next-generation, high-performance networking. 

Helping to power AI, ML and data center connectivity, the DS5000 is based on the Broadcom StrataXGS® Tomahawk® 5 Ethernet switch chip, which provides the radix of 400GbE ports with an astounding 128 ports supported on a single chip, enabling flat, low latency AI/ML clusters. In addition, the DS5000 enables next-gen power efficiency, offering more than 75% power reduction from previous generation 400G switches.  

The DS5000 is optimized for: 

  • AI/ML and Big Data Analytics  
  • Hyperscale Data Centers and Cloud Computing
  • High-Performance Computing (HPC)
  • Network Backbone (800GbE Data Center Leaf / Spine)

"Celestica's innovations in engineering and manufacturing continue to deliver networking, storage, and compute solutions to meet our cloud and enterprise customers' accelerating needs for infrastructure performance and scalability," said Gavin Cato, Head and Chief Technology officer for Platform Solutions, Celestica. "The DS5000, our flagship 51.2T 800G switching platform, is the latest example of this commitment to address surging AI workloads with a dense, low power capability."

The DS5000, along with Celestica’s entire portfolio of networking switches, support SONiC (Software for Open Networking in the Cloud). In addition, Celestica, a long-time member of the OCP community, incorporated the Open Network Install Environment (ONIE) installer into the DS5000 to support additional open and third-party network operating systems.
