Dell EMC PowerSwitch N2000 Series Switches

The N2000 switch series offers a power-efficient Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) network-access switching solution with integrated 10GbE uplinks. With high-performance capabilities and wire-speed performance, utilizing a non-blocking architecture to easily handle unexpected traffic loads, the switches offer simple management and scalability via an 84Gbps (fullduplex) high availability stacking architecture that allows management of up to twelve switches from a single IP address. An integrated 80PLUScertified power supply and features such as Energy-Efficient Ethernet and short cable detection provide energy efficiency to help decrease power and cooling costs.

Key Features

• Modernize campus network architectures

Modernize campus network architectures with a power-efficient and resilient 1/10GbE switching solution with Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+). Select N2000 models offer 24 or 48 ports of PoE+ to deliver clean power to network devices such as wireless access points (APs), Voice-over-IP (VoIP) handsets, video conferencing systems and
security cameras. For greater interoperability in multivendor networks, N2000 switches offer the latest open-standard protocols and include technology to interface with Cisco protocol RPVST+ and devices using CDP

• Leverage familiar tools and practices

All N-Series switches include Dell EMC Networking OS6, designed for easier deployment, greater interoperability and a lower learning curve for network administrators. One common command line interface (CLI) and graphic user interface (GUI) using a well-known command language gets skilled network administrators productive quickly. With USB
auto-configuration, network administrators can rapidly deploy mirrored configurations to numerous devices by simply inserting a USB key.

• Deploy with confidence at any scale

N2200-ON series switches help create performance assurance with a data rate up to 220Gbps (full duplex) and a forwarding rate up to 256Mpps. Scale easily with built-in rear stacking ports. Switch stacks of up to 600 1GbE ports can be managed from a single screen using the highly available stacking architecture for high-density aggregation with
seamless redundant availability.

N-Series switches help provide certainty with a lifetime warranty that covers software upgrades, hardware repair or replacement, and optics
and cables purchased with the switch. Details at Dell.com/LifetimeWarranty.*

*Select Networking products carry a Lifetime Limited Warranty with Basic Hardware Service (repair or replacement) for life. Repair or replacement does not include troubleshooting, configuration, or other advanced service provided by Dell EMC ProSupport.

• Hardware, performance and efficiency
  • Up to 48 line-rate GbE RJ-45 ports and two integrated 10GbE SFP+ ports.
  • Support for 24 ports of PoE+ in 1RU or up to 48 ports of PoE+ with an optional external power supply.
  • N2128PX-ON supports PoE 60W over its 4 2.5GbE ports, delivering up to 60W per port and bandwidth for Wave 2 wireless.
  • Up to 600 1GbE ports in a 12-unit stack for high-density, high-availability in IDFs, MDFs and wiring closets.
  • Non-stop forwarding and fast failover in stack configurations.
  • Energy-Efficient Ethernet and lower power PHYs reduce power to inactive ports and idle links, providing energy savings from the power cord to the port.
  • Dell Fresh Air compliance for operation in environments up to 113°F (45°C) helps reduce cooling costs in temperature constrained deployments.

• Deploying, configuring and managing
  • USB auto-configuration rapidly deploys the switch without complex TFTP configurations or sending technical staff to remote offices.
