Dell PowerConnect M6348 1 Gb Ethernet Switch I/O Module

PowerConnect M6348 is a hot-swappable 48-port 1 Gb Ethernet switch. While 16 ports are external uplink ports, the remaining 32 internal ports provide connectivity to the blades within the enclosure with a maximum bandwidth of 1 Gbps each. The PowerConnect M6348 switch also supports:

Two integrated 10 Gb Ethernet SFP+ connectors

Two integrated CX4 connectors for stacking or 10 Gb uplinks

One console management connector

It is recommended that you use the PowerConnect M6348 switch with quad-port mezzanine cards for maximum functionality. The quad-port mezzanine cards and the PowerConnect M6348 Ethernet switch enable an increased bandwidth (two 1 Gbps lanes), higher port density, and server module consolidation.
