ExaScale E-Series OverviewOperate a high capacity virtualized network fabric at a low TCO; ensure the network is as agile and efficient as the virtualized server and storage components; build long term ROI and investment protection with E-Series future-ready technology today.
The Dell Force10 Networks E-Series platforms are virtualized chassis-based switches that enable a new way of designing switching and routing infrastructures. E-Series architecture, patented backplane and ASIC technology are designed to increase network availability, agility and efficiency while reducing power and cooling costs. E-Series supports mission critical applications across converged fabrics in data center, telecommunication provider, service provider, enterprise and HPCC networks.
The Dell Force10 E-Series platform coupled with Dell Force10 Operating System (FTOS) make a cost-effective and flexible deployment option complete with comprehensive management, automation and resource provisioning capabilities.
