Dell EMC PowerSwitch N3000E Series Swithches

Energy-efcient, cost-effective 1GbE switches for modernizing and scaling network infrastructure

The N3000E switch series offers a power-efcient and resilient Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) switching solution with integrated 10GbE uplinks for advanced Layer 3 distribution for ofces and campus networks. The series has high-performance capabilities and wire-speed performance utilizing a non-blocking architecture to easily handle unexpected trafc loads. Use dual internal hot-swappable 80PLUS-certied power supplies for high availability and power efciency. The switches offer simple management and scalability via an 84Gbps (full duplex) high-availability stacking architecture that allows management of up to 12 switches from a single IP address. Note: With OS 6.5.1.x and higher, max stack for N3000E series is 8; however, N3000E series and N3132PX-ON support max stack of 12 members. N3000E series can be stacked with N3000E series; however, stack size is limited to 8 and active VLANs to 1024.

Modernize campus network architectures

Modernize campus network architectures with a power-efcient and resilient 1/10GbE switching solution with dense Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) and PoE 60W. Select N3000E models offer 24 or 48 ports of PoE+, or up to 32 ports of PoE 60W to deliver clean power to network devices such as wireless access points (APs), Voice-over-IP (VoIP) handsets, video conferencing systems and security cameras. For greater interoperability in multivendor networks, N3000E series switches offer the latest open-standard protocols and include technology to interface with Cisco protocol RPVST+ and devices using CDP.

Achieve high availability and full bandwidth utilization with Multi-chassis Link Aggregation (MLAG). N3000E

series switches support MLAG to create active/active loop-free redundancy without spanning tree. Server rooms can deliver reliable server and storage connectivity with features to help save time and avoid conguration errors. N3000E supports VRFlite, allowing it to be partitioned into multiple virtual routers with isolated control and data planes on the same physical switch. The N3000E series is also fully tested and validated to work with Dell EMC EqualLogic™ PSSeries storage arrays.*

Leverage familiar tools and practices

All N-Series switches include Dell EMC Networking OS 6, designed for easier deployment, greater interoperability and a lower learning curve for network administrators. OS 6 common command line interface (CLI) and graphic user interface (GUI) are intuitive, so skilled network administrators can get productive quickly. Select N3000E switches now support the Open Network Install Environment (ONIE), enabling installation of alternate network operating systems.

Deploy with condence at any scale

N3000E series switches help create performance assurance with a data rate up to 328Gbps (full duplex) and a forwarding rate up to 428Mpps. Scale easily with built-in rear stacking ports. Switch stacks of up to 624 1GbE ports can be managed from a single screen using the highlyavailable stacking architecture for high-density aggregation with seamless redundant availability. The N-Series switches’ lifetime warranty covers software upgrades, hardware repair or replacement, and optics and cables purchased with the switch. Details at

Hardware, performance and efciency

Deploying, conguring and managing

• Up to 48 line-rate GbE ports of copper or ber, two combo ports for ber/copper exibility, and two integrated 10GbE SFP+ ports.

• Up to 48 ports of PoE+ or 32 ports of PoE 60W in 1RU without an external power supply.

• Up to eight 2.5/5GbE ports delivering additional bandwidth for Wave 2 wireless access points.

• Hot swappable expansion module supporting dual-port SFP+ or dual-port 10GBaseT.

• Available with dual 80PLUS-certied hot swappable power supplies. Variable speed fan operation helps decrease cooling and power costs.

• Energy-Efcient Ethernet and lower power PHYs reduce power to inactive ports and idle links, providing energy savings from the power cord to the port.

• Dell EMC Fresh Air compliance for operation in environments up to 113°F (45°C) reduces cooling costs.

Product Description

• USB auto-conguration rapidly deploys the switch without complex TFTP congurations or sending technical staff to remote ofces.

• Plug-and-Play conguration with Dell EMC EqualLogic iSCSI storage arrays* and one-command iSCSI setup alleviates multiple step conguration and potential conguration errors.

• Management via an intuitive and familiar CLI, embedded web server (GUI), SNMP-based management console application (including Dell EMC OpenManage Network Manager), Telnet or serial connection.

• Private VLAN extensions and Private VLAN Edge support.
