Description
Network Interfaces and Ports
The Dell PowerConnect 6248P is a managed stackable switch that has 48 Ethernet ports for connecting network devices. These ports can be configured for various purposes, such as data transfer, aggregation, or uplink to another switch.
The 7X2NJ model has the following network interfaces and ports:
- 48 x 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet ports: These ports support 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1 Gbps Ethernet speeds, and are designed for connecting network devices such as computers, servers, and printers.
- 4 x SFP (small form-factor pluggable) ports: These ports support fiber-optic or copper Gigabit Ethernet transceivers and are used for uplink connections to other switches or routers.
- 2 x 10/100/1000BASE-T management ports: These ports are used for management purposes, such as connecting to a network management console or a Telnet client.
- 1 x Console port: This port provides a serial connection for local management and configuration of the switch.
- USB port: This port can be used for storage or backup purposes.
The Dell PowerConnect 6248P supports a variety of advanced network features, such as Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) for trunking, Quality of Service (QoS) for prioritizing network traffic, and Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) for network loop protection. Additionally, the switch supports multiple management protocols, including Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and web-based management for convenient remote administration.
Switching Capacity and Performance
The 7X2NJ Dell Power Connect 6248P is a managed stackable switching device that is designed to offer high capacity and performance for small to medium-sized businesses. With 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports, it offers a high level of connectivity for multiple devices and can support high-bandwidth applications.
The switch is stackable, which means that multiple switches can be connected and managed as a single unit. This provides a flexible and scalable solution for growing network needs.
The 6248P switch also has a high switching capacity, which is the maximum amount of data that can be transmitted and received by the device. With a switching capacity of 96 Gbps, it can handle large amounts of traffic and provide fast data transmission for critical applications.
In terms of performance, the 6248P switch offers fast data transfer speeds and low latency, making it ideal for real-time applications such as voice and video. It also provides advanced security features such as access control lists, port security, and network traffic prioritization to ensure data integrity and network performance.
Environmental Considerations
The 7X2NJ Dell Power Connect 6248P is a managed stackable switching device that provides 48 ports for connecting multiple devices in a network. When using this device, it is important to consider the environmental conditions in which it will be installed and operated.
- Temperature: The switch is designed to operate within a temperature range of 32°F to 104°F (0°C to 40°C). It is important to ensure that the switch is installed in a location where the temperature stays within this range.
- Humidity: The switch is designed to operate within a relative humidity range of 10% to 90% (non-condensing). High humidity levels can cause corrosion or rust on the internal components, which can result in failure or reduced performance.
- Ventilation: The switch requires adequate ventilation to maintain a cool operating environment. It is important to ensure that the switch is not installed in an enclosed area where air flow is restricted.
- Power Supply: The switch requires a 100-240 VAC power supply, 50/60 Hz. It is important to ensure that the power supply is compatible with the switch and provides a stable voltage to avoid damage to the internal components.
- EMI/RFI: Electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI) can cause errors in data transmission and disrupt communication within the network. It is important to ensure that the switch is installed in a location that is free from EMI and RFI sources.
- Physical Impact: The switch is designed to withstand normal usage and handling, but it is important to avoid exposing it to physical impact, such as dropping or hitting the device.
- Dust and Dirt: Dust and dirt can accumulate on the internal components, which can reduce performance and cause failure. It is important to keep the switch clean and free of dust and dirt to ensure optimal performance.
