density aggregation. Twenty (20) ports are 100Gb CXP ports. Eight (8) ports are 100Gb
QSFP28 ports. Depending on the transceiver inserted in the eight ports, QSFP+ or
QSFP28, the eight ports run at speeds of either 40Gb or 100Gb. With QSFP+ transceivers,
a 40Gb port can be broken out into four 10Gb ports, called 4x10G mode.
