Introduction
The Z9432F-ON switch is a 1U, full-featured fixed 10/25/40/50/100/200/400 GbE data center switch with 400 GbE optical
interfaces for data center leaf aggregation. The Z9432F-ON supports 32 quad small form-factor pluggable 56-DD (QSFP56-DD)
400 GbE ports and two small form-factor pluggable plus (SFP+) ports. This switch is also usable as 25/50/100 GbE switch
using 25/50/100 GbE breakout for connections to switches, servers, and storage.
CAUTION:
Switches with fan airflow from the PSU to the I/O—reverse airflow—are subject to tighter
restrictions for power consumption on cables and optics that are used for 400 GbE ports. Reverse airflow
switches do not support high-power cables or optics. 400 GbE transceivers and active cables may exceed the
supported threshold. For more information, see the
CAUTION:
Review the optics specification sheet and the switch data sheet to understand which models support
airflow from the I/O to the PSU (normal) and which support airflow from the PSU to I/O (reverse).
The Z9432F-ON switch has seven fans and two AC or DC PSUs. The switch also has one RJ45 serial console port, one
Micro-USB type-B console port, one 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet management port, and one USB type-A port for the external
storage. Management ports are on the I/O-side of the switch.
NOTE:
Redundant AC power requires high-line 200 VAC to 240 VAC. Using low-line 120 VAC does not provide redundancy
for the switch.
The Z9432F-ON switch supports the following optic configurations:
● 32 x 400 GbE—QSFP56-DD
● 64 x 200 GbE—QSFP56
● 128 x 100 GbE—QSFP56-DD & 4xQSFP28
● 128 x 100 GbE—QSFP56-DD & 4xSFP-DD
● 128 x 40 GbE—QSFP56-DD & 4xQSFP+
● 128 x 25 GbE
● 128 x 10 GbE
