DELL EMC NETWORKING S4048-ON SWITCH
10/40GbE top-of-rack open networking switch
The Dell EMC Networking S4048-ON switch empowers organizations to deploy workloads and applications designed for the open networking era.
Businesses who have made the transition away from monolithic proprietary mainframe systems to industry standard server platforms can now enjoy even greater benefits from Dell open networking platforms. Using industry-leading hardware and a choice of leading network operating systems to simplify data center fabric orchestration and automation, organizations can accelerate innovation by tailoring their network to their unique requirements.
These new offerings provide the needed flexibility to transform data centers. High-capacity network fabrics that are cost-effective and easy to deploy provide a clear path to a software-defined data center of the future, as well as freedom from vendor lock-in.
The Dell EMC S4048-ON supports the open source Open Network Install Environment (ONIE) for zero-touch installation of alternate network operating systems including feature-rich Dell Networking OS.
Ultra-low-latency, data center optimized
The Dell EMC Networking S-Series S4048-ON is an ultra-low-latency 10/40GbE top-of-rack (ToR) switch built for applications in highperformance data center and computing environments. Leveraging a non-blocking switching architecture, the S4048-ON delivers line-rate L2 and L3 forwarding capacity with ultra-low-latency to maximize network performance. The compact S4048-ON design provides industry-leading density of 48 dual-speed 1/10GbE (SFP+) ports as well as six 40GbE QSFP+ uplinks to conserve valuable rack space and simplify the migration to 40Gbps in the data center core (each 40GbE QSFP+ uplink can also support four 10GbE ports with a breakout cable). In addition, the S4048ON incorporates multiple architectural features that optimize data center network flexibility, efficiency and availability, including I/O panel to PSU airflow or PSU to I/O panel airflow for hot/cold aisle environments, and redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and fans.
S4048-ON supports feature-rich Dell Networking OS, VLT, network virtualization features such as VRF-lite, VXLAN Gateway and support for Dell Embedded Open Automation Framework.
•The S4048-ON is the only switch in the industry that provides customers an unbiased approach to Network Virtualization by supporting both network-centric virtualization method (VRF-lite) and Hypervisor centric virtualization method (VXLAN).
•The S4048-ON also supports Dell Networking’s Embedded Open Automation Framework, which provides enhanced network automation and virtualization capabilities for virtual data center environments.
•The Open Automation Framework comprises a suite of interrelated network management tools that can be used together or independently to provide a network that is flexible, available and manageable while helping to reduce operational expenses.
Key applications
