DC Network Core Replacement - CQU intends to replace the University s existing data centre network due to its age and associated risks. The objective is to deliver a replacement solution that minimises operational disruption while maintaining established architectural principles, such as the current leaf- spine design and routing frameworks. Vendors are encouraged to propose alternative or enhanced solutions where these can clearly demonstrate improvements in operational simplicity, network resilience, or l
Data Centre Network Core Replacement Replacement of existing data centre network infrastructure, including hardware and potentially associated services, to improve operational simplicity, network resilience, and long- term cost efficiency. The solution must support specific access and uplink speeds ( 1, 10, 25, 40 Gbps access; 25, 40, 100 Gbps uplink), MACsec capabilities, and enable hitless upgrades.
