Introduction

Overview

The Supermicro SSE-G3648B and SSE-G3648BR are a new generation of 1/10G Ethernet
aggregation switches. They offer 1G Ethernet connectivity for servers and end users as well as
access to 10G backbone networks and/or servers with higher speed connectivity. The available
redundant power supply option is but one of the many features making them attractive for use
in the modern data center. They are ideal as a distribution layer switch for campus networks,
enterprise networks and High Performance (HP) networks; as well as a core layer switch for
small to medium-sized networks. Preloaded with Open Networking Installation Environment
(ONIE) they are particularly suitable for use in an Open Networking environment.
