PSWITCH 2048
The FUJITSU Server PSWITCH 2048 delivers innovative technology to enhance and simplify networks. It is a 1U low-latency, Layer 2/3, Ethernet switch and provides a rich set of advanced networking features, making the PSWITCH 2048 an ideal platform for traditional Top-of-Rack (ToR) switch deployments. With support for forty-eight 10GbE BASE-T (PSWITCH 2048T) or SFP+ ports (PSWITCH 2048P) as well as six 40GbE QSFP+ ports, these switch provide the efficiency and flexibility you need to support cloud computing, virtualization and consolidation.
Despite all these features, the switch offers a cost-effective solution because there are no additional license costs for the number of used ports. The PSWITCH 2048 is ideal suited for a variety of different solutions such as hyper-converged infrastructures, e.g. VMware VSAN , Storage Spaces Direct (S2D) scenarios or also as dedicated storage network.
Features & Benefits
| Features | Benefits |
|---|---|
| Switch Management Command Line Interface (CLI)Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF)Open vSwitch Database (OVSDB) | Various management interface for administrator as well as for the management software.Three management interfaces – console, management port, and inbound network interface. Remote management of the switch is available through these port or interface. |
| Auto Discovery Software discovers and identifies the switch and automatically set up the switch with pre-defined parameters to the application. | Reduce the initial effort of introducing the switch into network. |
| End Host Mode (EHM) End Host Mode is a mode to simplify the port settings for connecting to a network in operation. | Establish a set of secured ports to be connected to the network without any considerations about STP, VLAN, load balancing, or other settings. |
| Data Center and Virtualization Data Center Bridging (DCB)FIP SnoopingEdge Virtual Bridging (EVB)DCVPN gateway (VXLAN, VTEP, NVE) | Deliver key scalable features that meet the demands of today’s virtualized and cloud multi-vendor environments.Manage network connection for virtual machines and physical server (heterogenous/mixed network environments). |
