S2410 (Data Center 10 GbE Switches) Overview

High Performance, Low Latency 10 GbE Data Center Switches

The S2410 combines the industry’s lowest Ethernet switching latency with industry
leading 10 GbE density to provide IT managers with more flexible deployment options.

  • 24-port 10 GbE fixed configuration 1-RU data center switch
  • XFP or CX4 interfaces
  • Ultra low 10 GbE switching latency

Key Applications

Coupled with the E-Series, which delivers unmatched resiliency and performance, the S2410 enables IT managers to deploy a reliable end-to-end 10 GbE data center solution, spanning from core aggregation to the server or storage edge.

  • Ultra low latency interconnect switch for high performance cluster computing
  • Low cost 10 GbE interconnect to network attached storage systems
  • Low cost aggregation of 10 GbE uplinks from S25N or S50N switches in server racks
  • Connects directly to 10 GbE servers
  • Foundation for a virtualized applications model

Key Features

Resilient and scalable high density, low latency 10 GbE switch for high performance
Ethernet environments.

  • 24 line-rate 10 GbE ports in a 1-RU form factor
    • S2410CP: 20 CX4 ports plus four 10 GbE pluggable XFP interfaces
    • S2410P: 24 XFP interfaces
