Edgecore Networks builds high-speed Ethernet switches that connect the servers, GPUs and storage behind AI and cloud services. Meet Astute Group at electronica 2026 to see an Edgecore switch on display and explore the networking behind tomorrow’s computing infrastructure.
Training an AI model can involve many processors exchanging data throughout a job. Delays in those exchanges can leave computing resources waiting. As data centres pack more processing power into their racks, network capacity and traffic management help keep those processors supplied with data.
Edgecore’s AI networking portfolio includes 800G Ethernet switching, with capabilities such as load balancing and congestion control to manage demanding traffic. These technologies support the connections between computing systems working together on AI training and other intensive workloads.
Edgecore’s AI switching portfolio now includes a platform offering 1.6 Tb/s per port, built for demanding AI and cloud workloads. Its open networking approach gives teams the freedom to choose compatible network software, with the open-source SONiC operating system as Edgecore’s preferred option. That flexibility allows engineers to shape their infrastructure around their workloads and adapt it as requirements grow.
A cluster training an AI model needs to exchange data between its computing systems. A cloud platform delivering AI services needs connections between applications and storage. Edgecore’s wider range also reaches campus networks and service providers, linking local equipment and carrying traffic into larger networks.
