The S6000 Switch
This chapter contains general features, capabilities, and physical configurations the S6000 supports.
Introduction
The S6000 is a fully featured switch/router one rack unit (RU) switch that you can deploy as a spine, leaf, or top of rack (ToR) device where you require 10Gb and/or 40Gb connections. It contains 32 ports of 40G that you can use to create a configuration of 104 ports of 10G small form-factor pluggable plus (SFP+)
(using breakout cables). The S6000 power supply unit (PSU) side (Figure 2-1) contains the PSU and fan modules.

2 - Fan Modules 0-2
3 - PSU 1
The S6000 input/output (I/O) side (Figure 2-2) includes:
•Thirty-two fixed QSFP+ ports
•One USB 2.0 port
•One USB-B serial console port
•One RS-232 serial console port
•One 10/100/1000BaseT (RJ-45) Ethernet management port

NOTE: For more information about LEDs, refer the Determine Switch Status section.
NOTE: The system light emitting diodes (LEDs) are on the I/O side. The fan tray power indicators are on the PSU side.
The S6000 switch runs the Dell Networking operating system, providing switching, bridging, and routing functionality for transmitting data, storage, and server traffic.
In a data center network, the S6000 switch provides converged network support and inter-operates with Dell and third-party network devices. The switch supports data center bridging (DCB) features and optimizes connectivity between servers using Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and internet small computer system interface (iSCSI) links.
By providing increased 40GbE bandwidth for device interconnection in a shared network storage environment (with the possibility of splitting 40GbE QSFP+ uplinks into four 10GbE SFP+ connections), the S6000 switch is perfectly positioned to help transition a data center with multiple speed requirements.
Features
The S6000 has the following features:
•One universal serial bus (USB-A) port
•One USB-B console port
•Thirty-two 40Gbps QSFP ports for 40Gbps transceivers
•On-board high-performance central processing unit (CPU) system with large memory

•Real time clock (RTC) support
•Hot-plugging redundant power supply
•Current monitoring for power management
•Removable fan that you can manage
•Standard 1U switch high
Physical Dimensions
The S6000 has the following physical dimensions:
•434 x 460 x 43.5 mm (W x D x H)
•17.09 x 18.11 x 1.71 inches (W x D x H)
Switch Ports
The following is a list of the standard ports located on each S6000 switch:
•Serial RS-232 port (RJ-45 type)
•Out of band (OOB) Ethernet management port (RJ-45 type)
•Thirty-two 40Gbps QSFP+ ports
•One universal serial bus port (USB Type-A)
Determine Switch Status
You can view S6000 status information in several ways, including LEDs and boot menu options. Also, you can view status information through the CLI show commands and with simple network management protocol (SNMP) traps. For more information about these options, refer to the Dell Networking OS Command Line Reference Guide for the S6000 Switch and the Dell Networking OS Configuration Guide for the S6000 Switch.
LED Displays
As shown in Figure 2-3, the S6000 includes LED displays on both the I/O and PSU side of the switch. Table 2-1 through Table 2-3 list the LED definitions for the S6000 switch. This includes the system, PSU, and fan status.

The S6000 supports splitting a single 40G QSFP+ port into four 10G SFP+ ports using one of the supported breakout cables. A maximum of 13 ports can be made fanout in each of the ranges from 0 to 63 and from 64 to 127, thereby making the other three ports disabled after reload. You can enable the fanout feature by using the stack-unit port mode command in CONFIGURATION mode.
Starting with Dell Networking OS version 9.4(0.0), you can configure up to a maximum of one-hundred four10G ports on an S6000.
QSFP+ ports have eight LEDs associated with each stack of two ports; four for the top and four for the bottom ports. You can configure each port as a single 40G port or four 10G ports. When configured as a 40G port, only the first of the four LEDs is used. When configured as four 10G ports, all four LEDs are used to indicate the status. Table 2-2 lists the LED status and Table 2-3 lists the management port LED status.
