Dell Active Fabric switch
Z9500 is a compact, next-generation switch/router designed
for industry-leading, high-density 10/40GbE aggregation
in a data center core network. The Z9500 addresses data
center 10/40GE aggregation requirements through traditional
hierarchical core or distributed core architectures for high-
performance enterprise data centers, high-performance
computing (HPC), cloud computing, hyperscale data centers
and provider-hosted data centers. As a compact xed
form factor switch, the Z9500 can be positioned as a core,
aggregation or end-of-row switch. The Z9500 can support
132 ports of 40GbE QSFP or 528 ports of 1/10GbE SFP+
realized through breakout cables and includes a full suite of
Ethernet switching and routing protocols in the hardened Dell
Networking Operating System 9 (OS9) to enable layer 2 or
layer 3 network architectures. The Z9500 supports a user-
friendly pay-as-you-go* pricing model, allowing customers
to license 36-, 84- or 132-port SKUs according to their
business needs. Pay-as-you-go* pricing can be upgraded to a
higher port density with a simple software license.
The Z9500 also supports Dell Networking’s Open
Automation Framework, which provides advanced network
automation and virtualization capabilities for virtual data
center environments. The Open Automation Framework is
comprised of a suite of inter-related network management
tools that can be used together or independently to provide
a network that is more exible, available and manageable
while reducing operational expenses. Built-in support for
key network virtualization and software dened networking
capabilities help enable customers with future-ready agility,
optimized for virtual services deployment and delivery.
Key applications
• Active Fabric 10/40GbE switching in enterprise, HPC and
cloud computing data centers that require the highest band-
width and performance for 1/10GbE servers
• Switching device for non-blocking clos architectures in
hyperscale data centers
• High-density 10/40 bE end-of-row switch for blade server
aggregation
• Small-scale Active Fabric spine switch along with S-Series
1/10GbE top-of-rack (ToR) switches for cost-eective
aggregation of 10/40GbE uplinks
Key features
• 3RU high-density 10/40GbE ToR switch with 132 ports of
40GbE (QSFP+) or 528 ports of 1/10GbE (with breakout
cables)
• With 10.4Tbps of switching I/O bandwidth (full-duplex) and
available non-blocking switching fabric, the Z9500 delivers
line-rate performance under full load with sub-2us latency
• Scalable L2 and L3 Ethernet switching with QoS and a full
complement of standards-based IPv4 and IPv6 features,
including OSPF and BGP routing support
• I/O panel to PSU airow
• Open Automation Framework adds automated conguration
and provisioning capabilities to simplify the management of
network environments
• Modular Dell Networking OS9 software
delivers inherent stability as well as advanced monitoring and
serviceability functions
• Supports jumbo frames for high-end server connectivity
• 128 link aggregation groups with up to 16 members per group
using advanced hashing
• Redundant hot-swappable power supplies and fans
• Low power consumption using a PHY-less design
• Support for L2 multipath using Virtual Link Trunking (VLT)* and
mVLT multi-chassis link aggregation technology
• Routed VLT (rVLT)* enables L3 routing protocol support in VLT
LAGs and also replaces VRRP L3 gateway at the access layer
with scaled L3 VLAN support
• OpenFlow 1.0-ready functionality for SDN* applications
• Tool-less Enterprise ReadyRails™ mounting kits reduce time
and resources for switch rack installation
• Power-ecient operation with close to 4W per 1/10GbE port
for nominal power consumption
