• Dell EMC Power Networking MX7116n Fabric Expander Module
The MX7116n Fabric Expander Module operates as an unmanaged Ethernet repeater to connect servers to the MX9116n Fabric
Switching Engine using QSFP28-DD connections. The Expander Module offers:
– Sixteen 25 GE server-facing ports
– Two QSFP28-DD ports for connection to a Fabric Switching Engine
• Dell EMC Power Networking MX9116n Fabric Switching Engine
The MX9116n Fabric Switching Engine is a scalable L2/L3 switch designed that provides high-bandwidth, low-latency 25 GbE
networking. This high-end switch offers:
– Sixteen 25 GE server-facing ports
– 12 QSFP28-DD ports that you can use to connect to Fabric Expanders or break out to: 8x10GE or 8x25GE ports for connection to
rack servers or other Ethernet devices, or 2x40GE/2x100GE ports for uplinks, connection to SAN storage, and switch
interconnects
– Two QSFP28 uplink ports that can operate in 1x100GE, 1x40GE, 4x25GE, 2x50GE, or 4x10GE mode
– Two QSFP28 unified ports that operate in Ethernet or Fibre Channel 1x100GE, 1x40GE, 4x25GE, 4x10GE, 2x50GE, or
8x8/16/32GFC mode
• Dell EMC Power Networking MX5108n Ethernet Switch
The MX5108n Ethernet Switch is a basic L2/L3 switch that is designed to provide high-performance, low-latency networking for the
PowerEdge MX7000 installations. It provides FCoE transit, but no native Fibre Channel functionality, and offers:
– Eight 25 GE server-facing ports
– Two 100 GE QSFP28 uplink ports
– One 40 GE QSFP28 uplink port
– Four 10GBASE-T uplink ports
• Dell EMC Power Networking MXG610s Fibre Channel Switch
The PowerEdge MXG610s Fibre Channel Switch provides the following hardware features:
– Up to 16 external FC ports to connect with external FC storage or an FC switch
– Up to 16 internal backplane FC ports to connect with the FC controller on the sleds
– A dual-core T1022E processor operating at 1.2 GHz delivers high performance, scalability, and advanced fabric vision functionality
– Two 32 Gbps short wavelength (SWL) optical SFP+ transceivers in the entry-level 8-port model
– Four 32 Gbps SWL optical SFP+ transceivers in the midlevel 16-port model
– Eight 32 Gbps SWL optical SFP+ transceivers in the enterprise 16-port model
• Dell EMC PowerEdge MX5000s SAS Switch
The PowerEdge MX5000s SAS IOM provides the following hardware features:
– Up to 8 internal 12Gbit/sec x4 SAS connections
– Internal SAS Fabric that enables the connectivity without any need for attached cables
• Dell EMC PowerEdge MX 10GBASE-T Ethernet Pass-Through Module
The Dell 10 Gb Ethernet pass-through module II supports 10 Gb connections. It provides a direct connection between the optional
internal Ethernet mezzanine card in the sled and an external Ethernet device. The Ethernet pass-through modules are hot-swappable.
The 10 Gb Ethernet pass-through module enables you to use optical SFP+ (short reach or long reach) and direct- attached copper
(DCA) SFP+ modules.
