What is the switching capacity and forwarding rate of the Dell E3224F-ON?

The E3224F-ON delivers 528Gbps full-duplex switching fabric capacity and 733Mpps forwarding rate. This non-blocking architecture ensures line-rate Layer 2 switching and Layer 3 routing on all 24x 1GbE SFP and uplink ports, ideal for high-throughput edge aggregation without bottlenecks.

What ports does the E3224F-ON provide for connectivity?

It includes 24x line-rate 1GbE SFP ports for fiber, 4x integrated 10GbE SFP+ secondary uplinks, and 2x rear 100GbE QSFP28 high-capacity ports. Additional management includes OOB 1GbE, RJ45/MicroUSB console, and USB Type-A for configuration.

Which network operating systems are supported?

Supports Dell SONiC (default) and OS10 open networking OS. The 4-core CPU with 8GB DRAM and 32GB SSD enables advanced L3 routing, VXLAN, and automation via open standards for flexible deployments.

What power and cooling features ensure reliability?

Features hot-swappable 550W AC PSU (redundant option), variable-speed redundant fans with I/O-to-power-supply airflow, 87%+ efficiency, max 230W/785BTU consumption, and dual firmware images for high availability.

Is the E3224F-ON suitable for government or regulated environments?

Yes, it is TAA-compliant under Trade Agreements Act. Operates in 32-113°F (0-45°C) with 95% humidity tolerance, making it resilient for enterprise edge in compliant data centers or campuses.

What management and resiliency features are included?

Includes auto-negotiation, MDI/MDIX, port mirroring, storm control, Energy Efficient Ethernet, store-and-forward switching, and 2-post rack kit. Rear ports enhance cabling simplicity in dense racks.
