Frequently asked questions

What switching capacity and port density does the S2410P deliver?

The S2410P provides 480 Gbps switching fabric capacity with 360 Mpps forwarding rate across 24 line-rate 10GbE XFP ports in a single 1RU form factor. This delivers 20 Tbps of aggregate bandwidth (24 ports × 10 Gbps), enabling non-blocking wire-speed switching for all ports simultaneously without performance degradation.

How does the S2410P achieve such low latency compared to other data center switches?

The S2410P delivers 300 nanosecond switching latency for CX4 ports and 700 nanoseconds for XFP ports across all frame sizes from 64 to 10,240 bytes. This ultra-low latency is achieved through optimized switching fabric architecture and minimal packet processing overhead, making it ideal for latency-sensitive applications like HPC and financial trading systems.

What are the power and cooling requirements for the S2410P?

The S2410P requires 100-240 VAC 50/60 Hz input with maximum power consumption of 225W and maximum thermal output of 768 BTU/h. Current draw is 2.05A at 100/120 VAC or 1.025A at 200/240 VAC. Built-in power redundancy ensures continuous operation during power supply failures, critical for mission-critical data center deployments.

Does the S2410P support jumbo frames and what are the benefits?

Yes, the S2410P supports jumbo frames up to 10,240 bytes (versus standard 1,500 byte Ethernet frames). This enables efficient bulk data transfers for network-attached storage, reduces CPU overhead by decreasing packet count, and improves throughput for file servers and SAN environments by reducing fragmentation and reassembly overhead.

What link aggregation and redundancy features does the S2410P provide?

The S2410P supports 12 link aggregation groups with up to 12 members per group, using advanced hashing algorithms for even traffic distribution across aggregated links. Built-in power redundancy protects against single power supply failures. These features enable high-availability network designs with automatic failover and load balancing across multiple physical connections.

What is the MTBF and reliability rating for the S2410P?

The S2410P has a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 240,105 hours, indicating enterprise-grade reliability for continuous data center operation. This translates to approximately 27 years of continuous operation, providing confidence in long-term deployment stability and minimizing unplanned downtime risk in production environments.

Is the S2410P suitable for virtualized data center environments?

Yes, the S2410P is specifically designed as a foundation for virtualized applications models. It provides Layer 2 MAC address support for 16,384 addresses, 1,024 VLAN support with 4,096 tag values, and 4 queues per port for traffic prioritization. These features enable efficient virtual machine connectivity, network isolation, and quality-of-service management in cloud and virtualization platforms.
