3-1 Data Center Deployment
The SSE-X3348T/SSE-X3348TR switch is designed for use in high-availability data
center environments with a high port density (
Figure 3-1 ). The switch includes
redundant, hot-swappable, load-sharing AC PSUs, a hot-swappable fan tray, and
port-to-power and power-to-port airflow direction options. Meeting the network scaling
requirements of enterprise and cloud data centers, the switch can be deployed as a
top-of-rack switch or as part of a distributed spine network, providing full line-rate
switching at Layer 2 or Layer 3 across all ports.
In many data center configurations, Ethernet connections link servers and data
networks, and Fibre Channel connections link servers to storage networks. This switch
enables the creation of a converged network, which employs lossless Ethernet
connections between FCOE storage, servers, and other data network switches
(
Figure 3-2 ).
