S-Series High Performance GbE/10 GbE Switch
The Dell Force10 S25V and S50V bring core-like resiliency in
a compact form factor to the network edge, enabling cost-
effective scalability. These high performance and low latency
Gigabit Ethernet switches deliver the critical functionality that
advanced enterprise network edges demand.
Key applications
Coupled with the Dell Force10 E-Series and C-Series, which
deliver unmatched resiliency and performance, the S25V
and S50V enable IT managers to deploy a reliable end-to-
end 10 GbE solution that spans from core to network edge.
