FS is honored to take the opportunity to deliver a high-performance network switching solution for this game event. FS networking switches as represented by FS N5860 series, S5860 series, and S3900 series switches will bear the role of getting thousands of gamers online at the same time. Featuring average latency of less than 1μs and advanced functions such as PFC, ECN, and RoCE, FS switches enable peak performance with incredible network speeds and superior bandwidth during the event.

"The event network backbone is now entirely FS gear," Mathew, Network Administrator of the Insomnia Gaming Festival i69 said, "The end result is that we ran the best network we have ever been able to deliver and experienced no bottleneck for the 2000 gamers between them and the core." He believes the success of this event will benefit from the high performance and fast-speed FS networks bring to the whole party.

The partnership between FS.com and Insomnia Gaming Festival i69 is the first time that FS has sponsored a national gaming festival.
