Description
Overview of the Dell 749-01166-01 Modular
The Dell 749-01166-01 is a modular switch that is designed to handle multiple 10Gigabit Ethernet connections using Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP+) ports. The switch is part of the Dell Networking S5000 series and can support up to 12 10GbE SFP+ ports. This device provides high performance, scalability, and flexibility in enterprise-level data center environments.
Understanding the S5000 Modular Switch
- The Dell S5000 series modular switches are designed to be scalable and flexible to meet the needs of growing data centers. The S5000 series is a versatile modular switch that supports various features including virtualization, converged networking, and unified fabric. The Dell 749-01166-01 is a member of the S5000 series and provides support for 12 10GbE SFP+ ports.
- The Dell 749-01166-01 switch supports a maximum of 12 SFP+ ports, which can be configured for different data rates, distances, and cable types. The switch also has four optional QSFP+ ports for additional 40Gbps connectivity. The switch can support a maximum of 24 10GbE ports using optional expansion modules.
- This switch is designed to handle high traffic loads with low latency and high throughput. It supports advanced features like Quality of Service (QoS), virtual LAN (VLAN), and link aggregation. These features help to optimize network performance and ensure that mission-critical applications run smoothly.
- Port Configuration The Dell 749-01166-01 switch has 12 SFP+ ports, which support 10Gbps data rates. The SFP+ ports can be configured to support different types of optical or copper cables. These cables can range in length from a few meters to several kilometers depending on the cable type and network topology. The switch also has four optional QSFP+ ports that support 40Gbps data rates.
- The S5000 series modular switches are designed to be flexible, so users can choose the type of port they need based on their specific requirements. The switches also support various types of media converters that allow for connectivity with different types of networks.
Performance
The Dell 749-01166-01 switch provides high performance with low latency and high throughput. The switch can handle up to 240Gbps of data throughput and support up to 179Mpps (Million Packets Per Second) forwarding rate. The switch also supports Jumbo frames, which can improve network performance by reducing the number of frames transmitted and processed.
Advanced Features
- The Dell 749-01166-01 switch supports advanced features like Quality of Service (QoS), virtual LAN (VLAN), and link aggregation. These features help to optimize network performance and ensure that mission-critical applications run smoothly.
- Quality of Service (QoS) The Quality of Service (QoS) feature ensures that the network traffic is prioritized based on the type of application and its criticality. This feature helps to ensure that mission-critical applications have the necessary bandwidth and low latency required for proper operation. The QoS feature can also help to prevent network congestion by limiting the bandwidth available to non-critical applications.
- Virtual LAN (VLAN) The Virtual LAN (VLAN) feature allows the creation of virtual networks within the physical network infrastructure. This feature helps to segment the network, which can improve network security and optimize network performance. The VLAN feature can also be used to manage network traffic by assigning specific network resources to specific VLANs.
- Link Aggregation The Link Aggregation feature allows for the grouping of multiple physical links into a single logical link. This feature helps to increase the bandwidth available to the network and improve network redundancy.
