Description
Product Overview of the Dell 463-7700
The 463-7700 Dell N4064F is a managed L3 switch designed to meet the
high-bandwidth needs of modern data centers and enterprise networks. This
switch comes with 48 10-gigabit SFP+ ports and 2 40-gigabit QSFP+ ports, making
it a highly versatile networking solution for organizations of all sizes.
48 10-Gigabit SFP+ Ports
The 463-7700 Dell N4064F Managed L3 Switch comes equipped with 48
10-gigabit SFP+ ports, which provide high-speed connectivity for servers,
storage devices, and other networking equipment. These ports support both fiber
and copper media types, giving users the flexibility to choose the right
connectivity option for their specific needs.
With 10-gigabit speeds, these ports are capable of handling
high-bandwidth applications such as video streaming, virtualization, and cloud
computing. The SFP+ ports are also hot-swappable, meaning they can be removed
and replaced without disrupting network operations.
2 40-Gigabit QSFP+ Ports
In addition to the 48 10-gigabit SFP+ ports, the Dell N4064F
Managed L3 Switch also features 2 40-gigabit QSFP+ ports. These high-speed
ports can be used for uplink connectivity to core switches or aggregation of
multiple 10-gigabit connections.
The QSFP+ ports support both DAC (direct attach copper) and
optical cables, giving users the flexibility to choose the right cabling
solution for their network environment. With 40-gigabit speeds, these ports can
handle even the most demanding workloads and applications.
Managed L3 Switch
The 463-7700 Dell N4064F is a managed L3 switch, which means it has
advanced features and capabilities that allow network administrators to control
and optimize network traffic. This switch supports advanced routing protocols
such as OSPF, BGP, and VRRP, which help to ensure efficient and reliable
network operation.
The switch also supports VLANs (virtual local area
networks), which allow network administrators to segment the network and
control access to network resources. Additionally, the switch supports QoS
(quality of service) features, which prioritize network traffic based on its
importance or sensitivity.
Flexible Management Options
The 463-7700 Dell N4064F Managed L3 Switch can be managed through a
variety of methods, including a web-based graphical user interface (GUI), a
command-line interface (CLI), and SNMP (simple network management protocol).
This gives network administrators the flexibility to choose the management
method that best suits their needs and expertise.
The GUI is easy to use and provides a graphical
representation of the network topology, making it easy to monitor and manage
network devices. The CLI provides a more granular level of control, allowing
administrators to execute commands and scripts to configure the switch. SNMP
provides a standardized method for managing network devices and can be
integrated with third-party network management tools.
High Availability Features
The 463-7700 Dell N4064F Managed L3 Switch comes with a range of high
availability features that ensure network uptime and reliability. These
features include:
Redundant power supplies: The switch comes with two
hot-swappable power supplies, ensuring that the switch remains powered even if
one power supply fails.
Redundant fans: The switch comes with four hot-swappable
fans, ensuring that the switch remains cool even if one fan fails.
Link aggregation: The switch supports link aggregation,
which allows multiple links to be grouped together to provide increased
bandwidth and redundancy.
Spanning tree: The switch supports spanning tree protocols,
which prevent loops in the network and ensure that traffic is routed
efficiently.
