Dell VHXN0 S4148T-ON 48-Port + 6-Port QSFP+ QSFP28 Layer 3 Switch

Description

The Dell S4148T-ON (VHXN0) is a powerful and versatile Layer 3 Ethernet switch engineered for the demands of modern data center networks. This 1U rackmount switch provides a high density of ports, featuring 48 x 10GbE SFP+ ports for server connectivity and 6 x 40GbE QSFP+ or 100GbE QSFP28 ports for uplinks or inter-switch connections. Its architecture is optimized for Top-of-Rack (ToR) deployments, offering high performance, low latency, and advanced features required for demanding workloads such as high-performance computing (HPC), big data analytics, and large-scale virtualization. As an 'Open Networking' (ON) switch, the S4148T-ON offers flexibility in network operating system (NOS) choices, allowing organizations to deploy the software that best fits their operational model, whether it's Dell's own OS10 or third-party options like Cumulus Linux or SONiC. This open approach provides greater control over the network infrastructure and avoids vendor lock-in. The switch supports a comprehensive suite of Layer 3 routing protocols, enabling sophisticated network designs and efficient traffic management. With a switching capacity of up to 1.28 Tbps and a forwarding rate of up to 960 Mpps, the S4148T-ON is built to handle significant traffic loads. It typically includes features like redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and fans to ensure high availability and operational continuity. This switch is a cornerstone for building scalable, high-performance, and flexible data center network fabrics.
