Brand new Dells Networking S3048-ON 48x 1GbE 4x SFP + 10Gigabit Network Management Switch Networking S3000-ON Switches

High density 1000BASE-T switch
The Dell PowerSwitch S3048-ON 1000BASE-T top-of-rack (ToR) switch is the industry’s first 1GbE enterprise switching platform to deliver both an industry hardened OS and support for open networking, providing freedom to run third-party operating systems (OS). This open networking platform is built for high-
performance, software-defined data centers and provides the features to run traditional workloads and the flexibility to deploy new workloads such as Hadoop, SDS and Big Data. The S3048-ON offers the flexibility to run OS options optimized for diverse deployment needs on a common hardware platform and architecture.
The S3048-ON features a non-blocking switching architecture coupled with OS9.X software, delivering line-rate L2/L3 features for maximized network
performance. The S3048-ON design provides (48) 1000BASE-T ports that support 10MbE/100MbE/1GbE and four 10GbE SFP+ uplinks. Each 10GbE interface can be used as uplinks to the network spine/core, as stack ports to connect up to six units in a stacked configuration, or a combination of both, depending on network architecture and uplink/stack bandwidth requirements.

The S3048-ON 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
• Redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and fans with color coded touch points for ease of identification/removal
• Dell ReadyRails for efficient installation of the switch into data center cabinets
The S3048-ON also supports Dell Technologies’ Embedded Open Automation Framework, which provides advanced network automation and virtualization capabilities for virtual data center environments. Embedded Open Automation Framework is a suite of network management apps that can be used together or independently to provide a network that is flexible, available and manageable while helping to reduce operational expenses.
