The CPU is the core of a switch
The Switch's brain is the Nvidia Tegra X1 chip, a custom-designed processor developed by Nvidia in collaboration with Nintendo. However, if you peel back a layer, there are four ARM CPU cores inside — specifically Cortex A57 cores, which take up about two square millimeters of space on the die. The primary transmission and routing of data signals take place at the core layer only. A core switch is a high-capacity, high-performance Layer 3 switch positioned at the physical backbone of an enterprise network. Engineered to aggregate massive volumes of data from distribution switches, it provides ultra-low latency and maximum throughput to ensure uninterrupted routing and packet.
