Enabling High-Speed Collaboration with 10GbE

Enabling High-Speed Collaboration with 10GbE

2nd May 2025

Customer Challenge: A research institute needed to upgrade its network infrastructure to support data-intensive computational tasks and large dataset transfers between researchers' workstations and central servers. Their existing 1Gbps network was causing significant delays and hindering collaborative research efforts.

ALFA TECH’s Solution: ALFA TECH deployed the Ubiquiti USW-Enterprise-XG-24 as a high-speed aggregation switch. Its 24 x 10GbE RJ45 ports provided direct 10Gbps connections to researchers' high-performance workstations and lab equipment using existing copper cabling. The 25GbE SFP28 ports were used for ultra-fast uplinks to the core network and storage systems.

Customer Benefit: The institute experienced a dramatic improvement in network speed, enabling rapid transfer of large datasets and faster access to computational resources. This significantly accelerated research timelines and improved collaboration among teams, all managed seamlessly within the UniFi ecosystem.
