The UCS 3912 is based on ONPATH's patented 3-stage switching architecture that provides a modular backplane with a hybrid switch fabric combining up to 12Tbps of electrical switch fabric with an optical fabric, capable of scaling based on a customer's connectivity requirements and budget. With redundant, hot-swappable switch port blades and switch fabric blades, the 3912's high-availability architecture delivers customers with a reliable and secure solution for their connectivity and monitoring applications.

With up to 576 non-blocking high-speed ports of connectivity offered in a 12-slot, 16-rack unit chassis, the UCS 3912 is capable of scaling up to 1,152 ports per 19 inch rack. ONPATH also offers an investment guarantee, providing customers with full credit of the price paid for an ONPATH 3901 or 3903 chassis toward an upgrade to a new UCS 3912 system, within a full year of prior purchase. And ONPATH's convenient "pay-as-you-grow" port licensing model enables the UCS 3912 to further accelerate the customer's return on investment.

"The new 3912 provides our customers with the ultimate investment protection," said Larry Cantwell, CTO of ONPATH. "It complements our 48-port UCS 3901 and 144-port 3903 chassis released last year, with switch blade portability across all 3900 systems, making the 3912 the most scalable, flexible, and future-proof solution on the market."

The introduction of the UCS 3912 further expands the flexibility of ONPATH's 3900 family, which supports an exclusive hybrid switching architecture. Supporting electrical and all-optical blades within the same chassis, the 3900 family supports all Fibre Channel, Ethernet, SONET/SDH, OTN, and proprietary protocols ranging from 1Gbps to over 100Gbps per port. The 3900 family offers the smallest, most flexible and future-proof platform on the market. HorizON, ONPATH's software solution, coupled with the company's UCS product line, adds the highest levels of network intelligence, user simplicity, and system security. Together, the solution is the industry's leading platform for Cloud Networking, Network Monitoring, Test Automation, and Cyber Security applications.
