DELL Force10 S6000 Managed L2/L3 1U Black

32 x 40GbE, QSFP+, 2 x AC PSU, 3 x Fan Modules IO to PSU Panel (Normal), 1 x RJ45, 1 x USB 2.0 (Type A), 1 x USB 2.0 (Type B), 7320 g Data center optimized.
The Dell Networking S Series S6000 is a 10/40GbE top-ofrack (ToR) switch purpose-built for applications in highperformance data center and computing environments. Leveraging a non-blocking, cut-through switching architecture, the S6000 delivers line-rate L2 and L3 forwarding capacity to maximize network performance.
The compact S6000 design provides industry-leading density of 32 ports of 40GbE or 96 ports of 10GbE1 and eight additional ports of 40GbE to conserve rack space while enabling denser footprints and simplifying migration to 40Gbps in the data center core. Priority-Based Flow Control (PFC), Data Center Bridge Exchange (DCBX) and Enhanced Transmission Selection (ETS) make the S6000 ideally suited for DCB environments. In addition, the S6000 incorporates multiple architectural features that optimize data center network flexibility, efficiency and
availability, including redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and fans.

The S6000 also supports Dell Networking’s Open Automation Framework, which provides enhanced network automation and virtualization capabilities for virtual data center environments. The Open Automation Framework comprises a suite of inter-related network management tools that can be used together or independently to provide a network that is flexible, available and manageable while helping to reduce operational expenses. Furthermore, built-in support for key network virtualization and software-defined networking initiatives help enable customers with futureready agility, optimized for virtual services deployment and delivery.

Key applications
- High-density 10/40GbE ToR server aggregation in highperformance data center environments
