Paris, France — Following last year’s successful launch of its VSR Appliance, 6WIND today announces a second-generation release, built on Dell Technologies latest-generation server platforms and powered by the latest Intel® Xeon® 6 processors.
This new generation elevates the earlier collaboration, delivering significant gains in throughput, scalability, and operational flexibility — all on standard x86 infrastructure. It underscores 6WIND’s commitment to advancing efficiently network disaggregation by fully leveraging cutting-edge server and network interface technologies.
Built on Latest-Generation Dell PowerEdge Servers with Intel Xeon 6
The second-generation 6WIND VSR Appliance is based on Dell’s latest-generation PowerEdge platforms and the Intel® Xeon® 6 processor family, maximizing compute density, performance per watt, and architectural efficiency.
Massive Port-Capacity Options
Available configurations scale from 4×10G up to 4×400G, enabling service providers to address everything from entry deployments to extreme high throughput use cases.
Support for Leading-Edge NICs
The platform supports high-performance network adapters including NVIDIA ConnectX-6/7, and Intel® E830, with Intel® E835 NIC support planned — ensuring low-latency, high-bandwidth, host-native networking.
Fully Optimized for 6WIND Performance
Each appliance is fine-tuned to unlock the full performance potential of the 6WIND software stack on x86, delivering ultra-high throughput, deterministic low latency, and hardware-agnostic flexibility.
Available via Dell and Authorized Partners
The new-generation VSR Appliance is available directly from Dell or through Dell-authorized partners, extending the procurement and support model introduced with the original 2025 collaboration.
Built on a Trusted Foundation
The initial 2025 collaboration between 6WIND and Dell Technologies introduced a unified, high-performance virtualized networking solution under the Dell OEM program — combining Dell infrastructure with 6WIND’s Virtual Service Router software to address the needs of service providers and enterprises.
With this second-generation release, 6WIND and Dell Technologies take the next step forward: delivering a future-ready, ultra-scalable, hardware-agnostic router appliance that simplifies deployment and scaling while preserving performance, control, and operational sovereignty.
Statement from 6WIND Leadership
“Since our first Dell co-delivered solution earlier this year, demand has grown rapidly for a more powerful, flexible, and scalable platform” Said Julien Dahan, CEO, 6WIND.
“This new generation — built on Dell’s latest-generation servers and Intel® Xeon® 6 — is the direct response to that demand. It delivers unprecedented throughput and flexibility while staying true to our cloud-native, hardware-agnostic philosophy.”
