PG Direct Introduces ZTE's Advanced ZXR10 5960X Switch

On November 1, 2025, PG Direct, managed by KSG Corporation headquartered in Chiyoda, Tokyo, launched the domestic sale of ZTE's highly reliable switch, the "ZXR10 5960X" series. Designed to meet the demands of data centers, this product has been gaining traction with both domestic and international telecommunications carriers.

Key Features

The "ZXR10 5960X series" is a Layer 3 switch supporting up to 400GbE, equipped with features that enhance virtualization networks such as VXLAN, EVPN, and MPLS. Although designed for large-scale networks, its architecture includes redundant power supplies and fans, making it well-suited for enterprise environments.

Furthermore, there has been an increasing consultation for deploying this switch as a backbone in HCI environments utilizing Proxmox VE and Ceph. This model is particularly suitable for configurations requiring 25GbE and higher, which makes it ideal for environments relying on NVMe storage.

Thanks to ZTE's proprietary chipset, users can benefit from low latency and stable throughput, facilitating seamless operation in virtual infrastructures and distributed storage settings.

Current Networking Landscape

In recent years, servers and workstations equipped with onboard 25GbE ports have started emerging in the market. This marks a significant shift as organizations can achieve high-speed communication surpassing the traditional 10GbE standards in a more compact and cost-effective manner. The acceleration of this trend is especially notable in data centers, AI/ML environments, and enterprise networks.

Looking ahead, 25GbE is likely to become a standard infrastructure within cloud platforms, edge computing, and video processing fields. The arrival of high-speed networking is now approaching its culmination, setting the stage for widespread adoption.

Support Infrastructure

As an authorized dealer of ZTE network products, PG Direct provides comprehensive support throughout the product selection, verification, implementation, and maintenance process. This includes contributing command references. By establishing a robust support framework for introducing ZTE switches domestically, PG Direct aims to broaden the options available for Japanese companies regarding their IT infrastructure, thus enhancing both cost performance and reliability in constructing network environments.
