ASUS Ascent GX10 AI Cluster Starter Bundle

Dedicated 200G connectivity

The included ASUS Ascent GX10 connects to the CRS812 through a 200G QSFP56 DAC cable, providing up to 200Gb/s network connectivity. A second 200G DAC cable is included for a future compatible system.

Built-in room to expand

The two included 400G-to-dual-200G breakout cables create four additional 200G connections from the CRS812’s two 400G ports. Together with its two native 200G ports, the switch can support up to six compatible 200G-connected systems when fully equipped.

Flexible high-speed switch fabric

Beyond its 200G and 400G interfaces, the CRS812 includes eight 50G SFP56 ports and two multigigabit Ethernet ports for compatible storage, management, or lower-speed network connections.

Cabling matched to the deployment

The included DAC and breakout cables are selected for the CRS812’s QSFP56 and QSFP56-DD interfaces. They provide the initial connection and expansion-ready cabling without needing to source them separately.

Designed for AI environment growth

This bundle provides a practical starting point for local AI development, inference, and high-speed data movement, while retaining a clear path to add compatible systems as requirements grow.
