High 10 Gigabit Ethernet density for the data center edge
End-to-end 10 Gigabit Ethernet data center solution
Standards-based Layer 2 features

S2410 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 (300 ns) 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 S50N switches in server racks
Connects directly to 10 GbE servers
Foundation for a virtualized applications model
