“We see tremendous opportunity in providing our customers with exact-fit networking memory solutions to support all types of data center networking equipment”
Network memory dictates the amount of data stored or transferred in switching and routing equipment. Low density as well as poor quality memory can disrupt the performance of a network by acting as a bottleneck to data transfer. The rating and attributes of memory can also greatly affect data center network’s overall efficiency.
Propriety data center networking equipment, such as Network Interface Cards (NICs), routers and switches have become highly specialized. Very dense compact equipment is being developed, and as 5G rollouts continue, a shift in network design is critical to support 5G service capabilities. Memory features contained in SMART Modular’s new DuraMemory low profile DIMMs and Mini-DIMMs, which include ultra-low latency and high capacities, enable various networks to connect multiple devices and systems into one, seamless and automated complete system.
