4 Introduction Historical advantage of BASE-T (relative cost, availability, flexibility) Comparison of relative cost of 10GBASE-T and predicted 40GBASE-T to other interconnect technology Effect of 40GBASE-T on architecture choices 4
5 BASE-T Advantages Least cost access layer alternative when compared to other interconnect technologies Optical (e.g. SR, LR) Direct-Attached Structured topology Common physical interface (RJ45) Flexibility and longevity Optimized for small to medium-sized data centers (< 20K square feet) Supports auto-negotiation and Power-Over-Ethernet Simple plug and play installation Ubiquitous RJ45 interface simplifies 10GBASE-T to 40GBASE-T upgrade path 5
6 Centralized ing Architecture: TIA-942 Direct Connect Pro Lower cost than distributed architectures Simple to design, implement and maintain Minimized network bottleneck Good port utilization Easy device management Con Large number of cables Cable overlaps Difficulties in cable pathway design Lack of scalability 6
7 End-of-Row or Middle-of-Row ing Architecture Pro Fewer number of cables than direct-connect architecture Good scalability Cost effective compared to top of rack (ToR) Con More capital expenditure on end of rack (EoR) and middle of rack (MoR) switches Increased management overhead Network stability risks due to potential Layer 2 loops that cause broadcast storm 7
8 Top-of-Rack ing Architecture Pro Most efficient cable use Efficient use of floor space Good scalability Easy cable management Con More switches to manage Difficult to achieve full port utilization of ToR switch Higher aggregation layer port count Higher spanning tree logical ports in aggregation layer More server-to-server traffic in aggregation layer Potentially higher switch costs Thermal management risks Creation of hotspots 8
9 EoR vs. ToR Relative Costs Relative 10GBASE-T Total Cost EoR ToR Roughly a 26 percent increase in cost using ToR with Direct-Attached cabling Source: Anixter Inc. 9
10 EoR vs. ToR Relative Costs (Detailed) Relative 10GBASE-T Total Costs Server Interfaces Networking Hardware Cooling Infrastructure Power Infrastructure Cabling Infrastructure EoR ToR Reduced cabling costs with ToR Increased cost of ToR architecture driven by network electronics and server interfaces Source: Anixter Inc. 10
11 Category 8 Goals Reduce 40GBASE-T equipment power consumption Reason for modifications in channel length and shielding Support End-of-Row and Top-of-Rack data center deployments 30 meter reach with 2 connectors is sufficient Support auto-negotiation for backwards compatibility Same 4-pair twisted-pair cable as prior categories 11
12 Data Center Twisted-Pair Migration Roadmap Category Maximum Bandwidth Maximum Application Data Rate Maximum Reach Number of Connectors in Channel Cable Construction Upgrade Path 6 6A 250MHz 500MHz 1000BASE-T 10GBASE-T 100m 100m 4 4 Unshielded or shielded 1G to 10G Unshielded or shielded 10G to 40G MHz 40GBASE-T 30m 2 Shielded only 12
13 How to Future Proof Today Limit copper reach to 30 meters with only 2 connectors in the channel Ensure deployment can support shielded copper cabling New technologies like Application Centric Infrastructure (also called leaf-spine) can present new opportunities 13
14 Flexibility: Supporting mixed applications with BASE-T over structured cabling 20 m 20 m 3m 3m Patch Panel Patch Panel Patch Panel 10G server 10G server 40G Server 40GBASE-T switch 40G Server 10G Server 10G Server UPS Power Strip Power Strip UPS Power Strip Power Strip UPS Power Strip Power Strip 14
15 Where can 40GBASE-T be used? 40GBASE-T will work anywhere in a data center where 30 meter connections will reach. This includes: Anywhere in the classic 3 level hierarchy For the fat-tree / leaf-and-spine / interconnected fat-tree fabric architecture For full-mesh, interconnected meshes, and centralized switch For virtual switch Source: Jonathan Jew, editor of TIA-9432-A, VC TIA TR42.1IEEE P802.3bq 15

21 Summary Future proofing is possible today if you: Design facilities to accommodate 30m of copper (24m link with 6m total of patch cords) Design for only 2 connectors in a channel Design so shielded can be accommodated BASE-T still retains traditional advantages Low cost Easy to deploy Auto-negotiation for plug and play and backwards compatibility 21
