Data center networking covers everything from the physical cabling inside a rack, through the switches and routers connecting servers, to the interconnection points that link the facility to the outside world. It includes both the network fabric inside the building and the connectivity ecosystem outside it. For IT leaders evaluating data centers, both layers matter and they each have different design considerations.
