ExaLINK Fusion
The ExaBlaze ExaLINK Fusion is high performance switch and application platform. It enables you to:
- Patch together any two ports, or fan out multicast data with less than 5 ns latency
- Connect multiple servers to a single uplink port with 95 ns of port to port latency. Everything you need to get to the exchange with nothing you don’t
- Switch packets at Layer 2 with 110 ns of latency, and a subset of full Layer 3 functionality

Timestamping
ExaBlaze ExaLINK Fusion
- Any flow through the device can be timestamped to nanosecond resolution
- Pulse per second input for synchronisation
- 0.2 parts per billion holdover drift with loss of external timing (with optional timing upgrade)
- Local time synchronised by NTP or PTP
