Modernize your network
The N3000 Series offers high-availability GbE switches with easy-to-manage solutions that:
- Use MLAG for multipath loop-free redundancy without spanning tree to enable full-bandwidth utilization and high availability
- Promote greater interoperability through interfaces with Cisco's Rapid Per VLAN Spanning Tree (RPVST+) and devices using Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP)
- Offer more flexibility by uniting products with the latest open standard protocols
- Include advanced IPv4 and IPv6 Layer 3 routing, security and scalability features
- Have plug-and-play configuration with Dell EqualLogic iSCSI storage arrays; one-command iSCSI setup alleviates multiple step configuration and potential configuration errors
- Support full bandwidth Wave 2 wireless with 2.5/5GbE ports on the N3132PX-ON
Deliver clean power to network devices with PoE 60W and PoE+ support
The Dell Networking N3000 Series has options for up to 48 ports of Power-over-Ethernet Plus (PoE+) without an external power supply. N3024EP-ON and N3048EP-ON are able to support up to 12 ports of 60W Power over Ethernet (PoE 60W), and up to 32 ports of PoE 60W on the N3132PX-ON. This allows you to attach devices with high power requirements (up to 30.8 watts for PoE+, up to 60 watts for PoE 60W) without running a separate power cable. Power-over-Ethernet is particularly useful in older buildings where installing power to multiple, widespread locations can be prohibitively expensive.
Designed for efficiency
Built to help keep operating costs down, the N3000 Series can operate at temperatures up to 113°F (45°C) to help reduce cooling costs. Features designed to improve overall efficiency include:
- Hot-swappable 80PLUS-certified efficient power supply with dual power supplies option
- Enough power capacity to provide up to 48 ports of PoE+ (up to 30.8 watts) in a 1U footprint
- Redundant variable-speed cooling fans
- Energy-efficient Ethernet and low-power PHYs to help reduce power to inactive ports and idle links
Advanced feature set to simplify management
The Dell Networking N3000 Series is designed for easy deployment and outstanding interoperability. A single OS release (Dell Networking OS 6) allows you to maintain consistent configurations across all N-Series products with a comprehensive feature set that includes:
- One common command line interface (CLI) and graphical user interface (GUI) that use a well-known command language to help skilled network administrators become productive quickly
- USB auto-configuration that helps network administrators rapidly deploy mirrored configurations to numerous devices by simply inserting a USB key
- Enterprise-class features with familiar and intuitive configuration and management commands - plus the latest open-standard protocols and smart integration technologies to help make smoothly operating multi-vendor networks possible.
