The Open Automation Framework comprises a suite of inter-related network management tools that can be used together or independently to provide a network that is flexible, available and manageable while helping to reduce operational expenses. The S6000 also supports Dell Networking's Open Automation Framework, which provides enhanced network automation and virtualization capabilities for virtual data center environments. In addition, the S6000 incorporates multiple architectural features that optimize data center network flexibility, efficiency and availability, including redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and fans. Priority-Based Flow Control (PFC), Data Center Bridge Exchange (DCBX) and Enhanced Transmission Selection (ETS) make the S6000 ideally suited for DCB environments. The compact S6000 design provides industry-leading density of 32 ports of 40GbE or 96 ports of 10GbE1 and eight additional ports of 40GbE to conserve rack space while enabling denser footprints and simplifying migration to 40Gbps in the data center core.

Leveraging a non-blocking, cut-through switching architecture, the S6000 delivers line-rate L2 and 元 forwarding capacity to maximize network performance. The Dell Networking S Series S6000 is a 10/40GbE top-of-rack (ToR) switch purpose-built for applications in high-performance data center and computing environments. The S6000 includes feature-rich Dell FTOS, VLT, and built-in network virtualization features with support for Dell Open Automation Framework. High-density 40GbE switch (32 ports of 40GbE or 96 ports of 10GbE1 and eight ports of 40GbE) with high performance for ToR, MoR and EoR deployments.
