The Virtual Services Platform 8000 Series are flexible, compact form-factor Ethernet Switches designed to deliver sophisticated functionality in versatile deployment scenarios for businesses that range from mid-market up to mid-sized enterprises.

The VSP 8000 Series features tight integration between the industry’s leading hardware and our proven VSP Operating System and this delivers a compelling package of enhanced levels of functionality and robustness.

Leveraging unique virtualization technologies, businesses can benefit from real-time service agility, avoiding the delays associated with conventional design, and the outages introduced in trying to maintain them. The compact form-factor (CFF) design revolutionizes the cost/benefit proposition for the mid-market/mid-sized Core Switch role; delivering higher port density, better price/port, lower entry price-point, enhanced power efficiency, reduced maintenance, smaller physical footprint, and easy scalability. Essentially, the CFF gives business what they need, and at the same time helps them avoid the “chassis tax”.
