The Corsa DP2000 series is an open programmable switching and routing platform that delivers 10G and 100G subscriber-level networking, on-demand services and real-time network tuning. The Corsa DP2000 allows network architects and operators to dynamically partition hardware into independent virtual SDN switches or routers operating at line-rate.

Networks under pressure
Traffic volume, traffic mix, expensive hardware, rigid platforms
What network operators want is hardware virtualized at the core of their
networks like it has so successfully been done in the compute world

True Network Hardware Virtualization
Allows hardware resources to be exposed as independent logical SDN
switch contexts running at 10G and 100G physical network speed under
open programmatic control

DP2000 Series with Network Hardware Virtualization
There is real suffering out there:
Diversity of services and traffic make one size fits all difficult
Varying traffic, wide mix of services and bit rates
NaaS and SaaS mean diverse requirements -> IoT is cloudy
The Corsa DP2000 Solution:
WAN Scale Network Hardware Virtualization where you dynamically create
virtual service instances that are exposed as virtual switches and routers
with the same performance as if they were dedicated physical switches.
Rapidly programmable
WAN-scale traffic engineering and management

How WAN Scale Network H/W Virtualization Helps
Isolate traffic into zones for performance and security reasons
Automate new service commissioning without rewiring
Protocol agnostic virtual instances
Use hardware resources more efficiently
Improve bandwidth management for each tenant
