Product Description
The Dell Force10 MXL 10-40 GbE DCB Blade Switch is a high-performance network switch specifically designed for integration into Dell's blade server chassis. It offers a dense array of 10GbE SFP+ ports and 40GbE QSFP+ ports, providing high-speed connectivity for blade servers within the chassis. A key feature of the MXL switch is its support for Data Center Bridging (DCB). DCB is a set of extensions to Ethernet that enables lossless transport for storage traffic, such as Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), and ensures reliable delivery for other critical data center applications. This makes the switch ideal for converged network environments. With both Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching capabilities, the MXL provides flexibility in network design and management. Its low latency and high throughput are critical for performance-sensitive applications and storage networking within the blade server environment, simplifying network architecture and reducing the need for separate storage networks.
