Data center networks are becoming increasingly popular for several computationally intensive applications such as search, gaming etc. Complex wiring issues in traditional data centers motivated us to consider wireless and a more flexible solution that also enables dynamic reconfiguration of data center networks. Recent release of the IEEE 802.15.3c wireless networking standard in the 60 GHz ISM band supports multi- Gigabit point-to-point link data rate. Such high data rate links are suitable for data center interconnects. In this paper, 60 GHz wireless technology is used to emulate data center network systems. It is shown that re-configurable data center networks can be designed using IEEE 802.15.3c technology.
